The incredible shrinking me!

Over the last three days I have done the following workouts -

Wednesday - Yoga & Pound Pro and Zumba
Thursday - Pound Pro & Pilates and Zumba
Friday - (Today) Zumba and HIIT

We had a high intensity HIIT class today, but it was AWESOME!!!

Update with new picture coming soon!!

Weight and working out

So, I said I wasn't going to weigh myself again, but then I had to reinstall this fitness app where I can track all my meals and see the nutritional value and they have to have my weight.

I am still at 178. (This time I didn't cry for a half an hour.)

Now, yeah, I get that you can replace muscle with fat and all that, but after logging my meals for the last four days I have found that I am eating way less calories then I should be for how much I am working out. It makes ZERO sense that I would not be losing weight.  One day the app actually "yelled" at me and said I wasn't getting enough calories.

The weight should be coming off soon!

Monday I took the morning Yoga off, but I did Core and More and HIIT later that night.

This morning I did Pound Pro and Pilates. Must be the after effect of adding in the HIIT workout but I found it a little harder to get through those classes today.

Tonight will be  Fat Blast Cardio. Look forward to it!

Wed - Fri (Yoga - Pound Pro - Zumba - Pilates - HIIT)

Wednesday I did Yoga in the morning and Pound Pro and Zumba at night.

Thursday I did Pound Pro and Pilate sin the morning and Zumba at night.

This morning did Zumba and HIIT.

This week I learned why most women I see at the gym also have black on for bottom wear.

Sweat marks!

This week has been good so far. My right hammy isn't as sore as it was last week. It really isn't sore at all.

I feel much better this week with the new add ins.

I felt better after I went and worked out one day!

Yoga - Core - HIIT - Pound Pro - Fat Blast Cardio

Monday was the usual and one add on.

Yoga - Love stretching after a day off.

Core - Great work out with weights and ball.

HIIT - This is new for me. It is a half an hour class. We do five different exercises. One minute each and 30 seconds rest in between. Every class is different. Like last Friday I learned they did abs. Our class was leg and butt. It does make me sweat a lot!

This morning I went in and did Pound Pro and Pilates.

Pound Pro is really a great class and I recommend it to everyone. It is fun, great music and a way of exercising that I have never done before, with the "drum" stix.

Today at Pilates one of the class member talked to us about posture. Now I am trying to remember to add it to my daily life.

Pound Pro - Pilates - Lots of Zumba!

Yesterday I did my first morning class - Pound Pro. Sara is the instructor and is incredible! Glad I joined her classes.

Afterwards I did Pilates like always! In one of the moves (shoulder bridge) I was able to kick my feet for the first time. Small progressive steps are so great!

I did the 7 PM Zumba last night with Chris. First time for everything - He asked me to come up and help lead a song. So sad he will be leaving us for another job soon. Hopefully not till January!

Instead of taking the day off like we usually do on Friday's we went in at 8:45 am and I went to Zumba with Kiersten. Fantastic and with a bunch of people I know already. Really had me sweating!

Yoga and Pound Pro

Went and did yoga this morning. Needed the stretching because my legs are so tense!

I can feel a slight strain in my right hamstring, but was able to do Pound Pro without any issues.

I was able to hit the sticks on the ground on some of the moves, so I am improving!!

Zumba was cancelled because Chris is in New York. I really wish they had a sub for the class.

Hopefully they will be Zumba tomorrow night.

How many times I checked in the YMCA in June

Almost forgot to post this!

(drum roll!)

32 times!

Only one workout in three days!

Sunday is our usual day off and yesterday we had a bunch of errands to run so we didn't get to do Yoga.

Did do the core and more class last night! We did a mix of cardio and abs and core.

Today is the 4th of July, so nothing is open. We are going to go for a walk on the bike path instead.

Any one have any ideas for helping flexibility?

My leg muscles seem to tight all the time.

Weight room and Zumba

Went at 9:30 AM and did some arm and ab work with the weights in the weight room.

I was a little disappointed that the arm curl machine is getting it's pad fixed, I love doing curls!

Zumba was fantastic as always.

Tomorrow is another day off and Monday starts the new schedule!
