Round 1 - July 26

She said:
Day one is here and we did the first workout, Chest and Back. I officially HATE push ups!! I never want to do another push up again! The one good thing was I pushed myself harder than I thought I would and started out during the first half of the work out doing 8 (girly) push ups and during the second half of the work out was doing 10 (girly) push ups. So that was a good thing :)
The hard thing was I thought my arms were going to fall off...lol
I am proud of myself for finishing the work out, even though it was the hardest work out I've ever done.
Meal:
We had a fantastic shrimp dinner. Lemon-Dill shrimp skewers, brown rice, roasted asparagus and red pepper soup.
here is the Lemon Dill shrimp skewers recipe.
here is the red pepper soup recipe - I substituted the white wine for low sodium chicken stock.
The meal was delicious and very satisfying.

Work out was great! Hard, but great! I realized that we really needed either a pull up bar or a secure place/hook in the ceiling to secure our resistance bands to the ceiling. We thought we could just do the workout without it and that was NOT the case at all. I tried hooking our resistance bands on our huge TV armoire but ended up almost killing myself in the process, cuz the armoire started to fall over....I know I'm an idiot. Gonna hit the store tomorrow and see if I can find a cheap pull up bar or hooks for the ceiling to attach our bands to.

Wishing everyone a very healthy day.
Fran and John
