Well, I woke up late today and didn't get down to the basement to meet with Tony.  So I'm going to have to do my cardio tonight after Maddie goes to sleep.  The nice thing is I'll be able to take a late shower and go straight to bed!  It's only about 24-25 minutes, so not too bad!
After seeing my miserable performance at trying to do the longest stretch I could, I think I have to find some way to build up my stamina.  As of now, my plan is to alternate 90 seconds of high intensity with 90 seconds of low intensity.  This basically means that one superset (jacks, running in place, run lunge) will be at high intensity, the next superset will be low, and the next will be high.  This hopefully will help me increase stamina better than the current high-medium-low routine.  I will try this out tonight and see how I do!!

Diet

I have to be good today as yesterday and Sunday are planned cheat days.  So no deviating from my normal food that I'm eating!

Breakfast - Oatmeal w/ Skim Milk, Protein Powder, Blueberries & Strawberries
Snack - 1 Tbl Almond Butter & 1 Slice Turkey Bacon
Lunch - Tuna Sandwich & Pear
Snack - 1 Tbl Almond Butter & 1 Slice Turkey Bacon
Dinner - Pita Pizza
Snack - Tuna Sandwich (inside only - no bread)

Exercise

I was watching my daughter tonight, so I did the workout upstairs while she was dancing to Circus by Britney Spears.  I just counted out/timed my exercise sets and transitioned when I was supposed to.  I guess it's nice that it is so repetitive and easy to memorize!!

After the exercise, I took Maddie to the school playground by our house.  I jogged about halfway there and walked the rest.  On the way home, I did the same thing.  Maddie got a nice ride, too, in her Whisper Rider.  She got this for her 1st birthday from Gramma and Grampa K!!
