Getting Back To A Routine Weekly Run Down

thanks for joining me and Kim for the weekly run down. This week, my main goal was to get back to a routine again. I really thrive on having a set schedule and was anxious to get back to mine. I’m aiming to for frequency over volume this week. Here’s a peek into my week of fitness and life.

Getting Back To A Routine

Sunday-full body strength + core 

I am slowly getting my sleep schedule back on track after Japan. Hopefully, a few more days should do it. I have not picked out a Peloton strategy or plan on what to do next so I was kind of winging it today and picked a new full body class. Later, my son and his girlfriend came over for dinner. It was great to see them after a few weeks! I was so happy to have a plate of grilled veggies with my fish.

Monday-core + full body strength + tread walk

It was Monday around here! Our refrigerator started leaking, the landscaper broke a pipe connected to our sprinkler system, our AC tune up appointment was today and of course arrived right at the same time I had a zoom call with my OB?GYN. I had to take the call  in my bathroom so the AC guy wouldn’t hear my consult. LOL it was quite the day! However, I did get back into my routine and got a good workout in.

I couldn’t decide which Peloton program to do so I opted for the AI chosen program. You input how many days you want of strength and cardio etc and Peloton creates you a routine with numerous class choices for each day. So, far I am impressed with what was chosen for me.

Tuesday-Peloton lower body Pilates + power walk

In between dealing with the above mentioned refrigerator issue, today’s Peloton plan called for a power walk and Pilates class. I’m continuing to get back on track and back into my routine. I’m finally back to the right time zone!

Wednesday-upper body strength + core 

Still a little jet lagged, this workout felt hard. I got it done though! Later, it was fun to return to Mahjong after a few weeks and even win a few games. It was also our 31st anniversary. Our trip was really our anniversary celebration however, my husband did send me these beautiful flowers.

Thursday-tread hike + core 

It feels good to get back to my routine and this was a tough hiking class. I’m no green thumb at all and I do leave the real the landscaping to the professionals. However, I was very proud of myself for getting these pretty bougainvillea into their pots out back. I also love calla Lillies at the front door.

 

Friday-lower body strength + power walk + core 

I am officially back to my time zone nailing a good sleep score! A lower body strength class + core was a great start to my day. Later, I met a friend for my hilly neighborhood walk with my weighted vest. Aah, that felt great!

Saturday-Pilates 

I’m loving the new harder Pilates classes with the torture devices (rings, balls and bands). They are great core work! I spent the rest of the day getting our patio area ready for the season. We then took our son and his girlfriend out to dinner for his birthday. Feels good to be back in my routine!
