Last night it felt like a hurricane was whipping through Ocala.
At around 2:30 a.m., Ryan, Sadie and I awoke to crazy claps of thunder and the brightest lightning strikes I have ever seen.
It rained all weekend in Central Florida. Sadie’s kiddie pool was empty on Friday night and just look at it now!
Totally full of rain water. Insane, huh?
When Ryan and I drove to the gym this morning, we had to take three different detours because the roads were flooded. On the bright side, the gym was pretty empty so there was no waiting around for machines once we arrived.
My workout began with 20 minutes of cardio on the elliptical before I completed the following leg workout:
Exercise | Total Weights | Reps | Sets |
Squats | 85 lbs. | 30 | 3 |
Squats | 85 lbs. | 15 | 1 |
One-legged leg press | 75 lbs. | 15 | 2 |
One-legged leg press | 90 lbs. | 15 | 1 |
Superset: Deadlifts, Lunges | 60 lbs. 30 lbs. |
15 15 |
3 3 |
One-legged leg extensions | 15 lbs. | 15 | 3 |
The squats in the beginning were definitely the hardest part of this workout. Squats are never easy for me!
Breakfast
Breakfast this morning was a spin on my oatmeal protein pancakes.
I blended the following with an immersion blender to make the pancake batter:
- 2/3 cup oats
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons maple pumpkin butter
I wish I could hold off eating breakfast until the sun actually rises for prettier pictures with natural light, but my stomach simply won’t allow it.
The pancakes turned out really well and the pumpkin butter added a touch of fall flavor that I really enjoyed.
Time to get to work. I usually get some freelance stuff done on the weekends, but this weekend I was at my computer for all of 30 minutes. My to-do list is screaming at me!
P.S. The Fashion page was updated this morning.
