Or if you really like good songs, you should listen to Alpha Rev's awesome song.
You will learn to love it.
Holy bananas, life has been ridiculously busy the last week.
I don't even know where the days go.
This past weekend I worked, so that was my main focus.
That and attempting to get in a workout every day.
Friday I went to the gym after work, then had dinner with the fam.
I got to see my niece and nephew, so that was nice, especially since I missed out on my nephew's family birthday party because of tap dance and kettle bells.
Saturday was a clusterfuck at work, and I ended up working, going to take my tap dance pictures, and then back to work.
I worked 11 hours on Saturday, so I didn't have much time to go and get a workout in.
I was gone from 6:30am to 8:30pm, so I couldn't quite drag myself anywhere besides to bed.
Sunday I worked, got a quick few miles in on the treadmill (i don't like treadmills), and then rushed to meet a friend for dinner.
Right as I finished up my workout and was stretching, the power went out at the Y.
The lights at the intersection in front of the Y were out as well, so I'm still not quite sure what happened.
Thankfully the road there isn't too busy on a Sunday evening, but it's still not good when the lights aren't even flashing red.
Today the Y had power, so that was good.
I managed to sleep in, and then hit the gym just before noon.
I have quickly discovered that that is the prime time to go.
Tomorrow will be a repeat performance.
I'm not sure if I've mentioned before, but I've become pretty much addicted to working out now.
I have such and urge and WANT to go.
I want to sweat and to get in shape.
I need that adrenaline rush.
I want to continue to see myself get stronger and in better shape.
In order to push myself harder, I now keep track of my workouts in a notebook.
It probably puts me at nerd status, but I don't even care.
Over the past few weeks I have seen my weight increase on machines, my distance get further, and my heart rate come down.
As my heart becomes accustomed to working out, it takes longer for it to get up as high as it once did.
My legs are stronger, my arms are even more stronger (bad grammar, I know, but it's true).
I am determined to be able to do a correct plank, as well as doing a stacked plank.
My Fitbit that I bought also keeps track of my steps, so I always write down my steps per day.
Yes, I am most definitely a nerd.
Oh yeah, my friend yesterday called me a gymrat.
I'm a fan.
I got home and fueled myself with a smoothie packed with spinach, banana, strawberry, 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder, and coconut water.
Not too shabby.
And of course I had to have my egg sandwich.
Today and tomorrow are my only days off in the next week, as I will work 7 days in a row in order to have the weekend off for my BFF's wedding.
Today I was finally motivated enough to bring in my bridesmaid dress to be altered.
Tomorrow I MUST go and get my friend Missy's bridal shower gift for this weekend, so I can send it with a friend.
I should probably go and get a spray tan too- need to do a test run on the spray tans that I bought from a Groupon.
Here's to hoping that I don't turn out like an oompa loompa.
Ok, I'm off.
Taco salad time.
Stay classy,
Bamf
