How is your week going?
This week flew by quickly this week thanks in part to David’s visit and some projects at work that are keeping me busy. Our evenings were relaxed while David was here, enjoying dinner out each night.
I treated David to his first fondue experience in Switzerland at Bains des Paquis and last night we enjoyed delicious chicken at Restaurant Chez Ma Cousine. I was so excited to hear that his Lonely Planet guidebook even suggested Chez Ma Cuisine due to their tender and delicious chicken which is also one of the best dinner deals in Geneva!
I didn’t walk through the gym doors this evening until 7pm. I was tired and not in the best mood. My plan called for a 4-5 mile easy run but as soon as I realized my iPad was dead I knew there was no way I could make myself run on the treadmill. Instead of forcing myself to do something I didn’t want to do I hopped off and decided to do a boot camp workout instead. I love creating boot camp workouts as it takes my mind off the workout itself and only doing any single workout for a short duration helps keep the workout fun and ensure I push myself as hard as possible. The treadmill speed intervals did a great job keeping my heart rate up and challenging me while I mixed up the strength to ensure I was focusing on my total body versus just one specific area.
What is your single most favorite strength or core training exercise? Mine is definitely side planks!
My favorites (I’m picking more than one!) are anything involving the TRX. I don’t know why, I just think they’re really fun and I love that you can do a whole body workout on them! I just did a post on my LEAST favorite…I guess I should do one on my favorites now!
