I made pumpkin pie and turkey chili today. Fall is here. I have loved the rainy weather we have had today. Ask me again in four months how I am liking it and I will probably cuss. Here's my workout of the day:
GPP:
4 rounds for time:
800m run
20 bench dips
20 pushups (strict)
20 OH DB push press 15/20
Then I focused on tri's since I had already done a couple sets on that muscle group.
Rope high pulley tricep extension-15
Single arm tricep pull down on pulley-15 each arm (I don't use a handle on this one. I hold onto the little black ball thing.)
Overhead press on pulley-15
*repeat three times
Tricep kickback on pulley-15 each arm (again, I just hold onto the little black ball)
Woodchoppers-15 each side
*repeat three times
Skull crushers on bench-10
Narrow grip chest press-10
Weighted sit ups-15
*repeat three times
Side Plank 15 each side
*repeat twice
I didn't do anymore cardio after the two miles in the gpp workout. I came home and was starving. I attempted to make pumpkin pancakes but failed miserably. Really. It was bad. So I threw the batter in a cup and "baked" it in the microwave. The result......?
A big pile of dog poo with a side of bananas and yogurt. I know it looks really nasty but it actually was quite good and had the texture of cheesecake so I'm not complaining. I really liked eating it for breakfast.
Lunch/snack was a bowl of plain greek yogurt with Kashi on top. I was not in veggie mood today. As you can tell by what I ate next...
I snacked on pumpkin pie filling and whipped cream along with a protein bar all afternoon. Oh man, it was excellent.
When it came time for dinner I wasn't that hungry from a belly full of pumpkin but I tried to eat a little bit of "real" food. I had turkey chili in the crockpot so I grabbed a little bowl and made myself eat it.
Then I got to go to my first guitar lesson. I have been wanting to take guitar forever and finally got all set up. I was nervous to have a guy for a teacher but he was way normal in my book. Long hair, thrift store shirt, a couple tats, just the kinda guy I feel comfortable around. I am serious here. He felt just like one of my old friends and I am excited to go back. I couldn't think of a better fit for a teacher for me. Hopefully I can pick up on it pretty easily.
As I was driving home I really, really, really, wanted to go on a short run in the rain. I love running in the rain...not the wind or snow but the rain I love. The hubs said it was OK if I went so I went home and changed and took off out the door. It was a gorgeous evening. I felt great. It was a great way to end the day.
Here is a sweaty picture for your enjoyment. Some of it was rain...most of it was sweat. :) But it's definitely a happy momma.
I am so VERY impressed with this blog. It inspires me. Thank you so much for including GPP. And thank you for this content.
