I Love Love Love, that I have so many options for working out! My home, the road, KB, and my gym. I really like weight training, because I see results and it helps me be a better runner. Sadly, when I train for a marathon I don’t get to do KB as much so I try and get more weights in either at home or at the gym.
To get me motivated I have created a weekly strength training plan to help me make sure I am working every muscle.
Mondays: Chest and Triceps and Abs
Flat Bench Press – 4 sets
Incline Dumbbell Press – 3 sets
Dumbbell Flyes – 2 sets
Dips – 3 sets
Cable Press Downs – 2 sets
Various Weighted Crunches and Hanging Leg Raises
Wednesdays: Back and Biceps and Abs
Pull-ups – 4 sets
Bent Over Barbell Row – 3 sets
Seated Cable Row – 3 sets
Barbell Curls – 3 sets
Seated Dumbbell Curls – 2 sets
Various Weighted Crunches and Hanging Leg Raises
Fridays: Shoulders, Traps and Abs
Seated Barbell Press – 4 sets
Single-Arm Lateral Raises – 3 sets
Barbell Shrugs – 4 sets
Various Weighted Crunches and Hanging Leg Raises
Weekend:
Squats – 4 sets
Leg Press – 3 sets

I am excited to see how this plan works out!!!
LUNCH
I have been working like a mad women and didn’t get my snack in today 🙁 So by the time lunch rolled around I was one STARVING women! I am glad I packed a great lunch!
I had a can of Black Bean Soup
Some yummy Lavish Crackers that I got in Bishop this weekend. They have millet, flax seed, and other great grains!
On the side I had a mini burrito I brought home.
+ one Juicy Pair!
I added some Greek Yogurt and Avocado to my soup and it made it extra creamy and wonderful.
Perfect!
Now I am sitting at my desk ready to pop! I am so full of FIBER 🙂
How’s your Hump day going???
