YAY! I worked out yesterday! And it was a gooood workout. I feel silly for being so down about skipping a work out... I just remembered that I just won't take today's rest day and exercise instead so I'll still be on track.
Yesterday I pushed myself through the entire warm-up even though I wanted to quit, which was good. The switch kicks (kick one foot and then jump alternating feet/legs) are really hard. Btw, and I guess this is a criticism from watching the same videos over and over, I really wish they wouldn't show some awkward people, especially during the Heismans. Some people look funny when they do it, like it's unnatural and uncomfortable. I'm not saying I'm any model student, but as someone who is following a group of people, having the camera focus on someone doing it really awkwardly throws me off. I pushed myself too hard yesterday to the point of nausea but I recovered quickly.Otherwise, the get up/get down/do push ups/run it out/get up is still really hard for me, and I was so exhausted that I could barely do jumping jack push ups. Is that supposed to happen? Also, am I supposed to do Cardio Abs right after? Because I do, and I don't have too much energy left for the warm up part. I always have trouble with the leg lifts things.
Food:
Soy & hemp protein berry smoothie (46g protein, 4.5g carbs, 4.5g fat)
Cantelope
Asian pear
Leftover grilled veggies from Macaroni Grill (way too greasy and oily)
Tofu, spinach and pea masala with 1/2 plate of basmati rice
Hemp shake (42g protein)
Sesame seed ball with mung bean
Soy shake (25g protein)
So that's around 120g protein, 100g (????) carbs, very little fat. My food habits are picking up! I ran out of hemp powder when I was doing my smoothie and I didn't feel like going back to my room to get more so I used soy protein. It tastes better than the hemp one. I am so annoyed with these powders being so dang clumpy!!!!!! I thought the soy protein was disgusting at first (the one without carbs), so maybe this hemp takes getting used to.. I'd really like to like the hemp one more.
