So last week was pretty unproductive fitness-wise. I was not getting much sleep and then the kids fell ill with a virus that involved a high fever (104!!) and lethargy. Needless to say they passed this onto me and I spent much of Thursday and Friday in bed.
Last week is well behind me now and I am gearing up for a great week of healthy eating and fitness!
My goal is to continue working on my glutes/thighs.
Yesterday (Saturday) I had my kickboxing class. Today I ran 2 miles.
Monday: legs day!
I will be attempting barbell squats for the first time in months. I managed to pinch something in my back months ago and could not squat for ages. I tried again about 6 weeks ago and it was still a problem but I hoping to start again with light weights (65lbs) and build back up from there.
Monday morning plan :
Barbell squat Superset with reclined leg press
Abductor/adductor (or innie -outtie machine as I like to call it)
Glute kickback machine Superset with valves
Ham curl Superset with leg extensions
Weighted walking lunges
Wall sits 3x one min each
Tuesday - chest and back
Lat pull down wide Superset with flat chest press
Lat pull down narrow Superset with sitting chest press
Row machine Superset with chest fly
Flat chest press one arm at a time Superset with dumbell row
Abs
20 min on the butt machine (I have no clue what the actual name of the machine is but it totally targets glutes.)
Wednesday Early morning run
Thursday -arms day!
For shoulders I am trying this new routine:

Dumbbell curl Superset with triceps extension
Barbell curl Superset with Bench triceps dips
Abs
Butt machine -20 min
Friday - Run followed by a repeat of legs day
So those are the workouts that I am looking forward to this week! The only bad part is that my best friend, who I can usually convince to meet me most mornings is now out of the country for the next two weeks :(
