This week was, yet again, centered around yoga and a few new workouts that I have never done before. We were staying with our Grandma this week, so almost every workout had to be something I could do without equipment or gym. It ended up being a really great week for workouts; I was complete some workouts and classes that I have never done before and definitely push way farther than was originally planned.
I also did two days this week without any starches. That's a pretty big deal considering that I could eat a loaf of bread in the time it takes most people to butter one slice. For reals. We were able to do a low country boil this weekend, which was fantastic. And I also made the hubs new favorite meal on one of our/my starch free days... It was so good that I did not even miss the bread!
Monday: 1-mile warm-up run followed by Ali K's Yoga for Beginners Workout. I don't care if the title says it is for beginners, this sequence works up a sweat every time! Then practice for compass pose (I got to the intermediate/advance position!!!) and headstands- 15 seconds FTW!
Tuesday: 3-mile run and this yoga sequence by Tara Stiles before bed.
Wednesday: Rest Day
Thursday: 60-minute Power Hot Yoga class at my favorite hot yoga studio in town. This was my first time trying a hot power yoga class and having my form complimented by a hot yoga instructor. Yea, Thursday was a good day!
Friday: Ballet Workout followed by Tara Stiles Yoga for Sleep flow. Then, more headstands. My arms were super sore from Thursday's flow so everything was leg centered for pain relief...
Saturday: First this workout, then this one by Tracy Anderson. Yes, I did them in reverse order, but it was still great. These were directly followed by the core workout from Tara Stiles. By the end of these three I was dripping with sweat. Arms still sore from Thursday- must make chaturanga arm workout!
