Reflection: Today, during my daughter's soccer practice, I went to the gym, and it felt great to get back in there! Mind you, I haven't been to the gym for over a month, not because I haven't wanted to but simply because I haven't found the time. So today, instead of watching my daughter practice I went to the gym, and I am glad I did. I went in with the intent to just complete a cardio work out, but then I saw all the machines, and went for cardio/leg work out. I started on the elliptical and alternated levels as I alternated forward and backward. I then went to the squat bar machine and then leg presses. I did crunches on one of the benches and found myself struggling, before I stopped going to the gym I was able to complete 3 sets of 75 reps each, and today I was struggling after 25 but I did push myself and was able to complete 150 crunches. Completed leg extensions even though they were hurting and leg curls. Did back extensions with a 25 lb weight and ended with 5 minutes on the treadmill. Overall, had a great work out at the gym! Definitely working on reaching my goals that we discussed in our class discussion, and I feel proud of myself for pushing myself and continuing with my work outs. I felt weird taking selfies at the gym but I took a couple pictures on some equipment and entered the data into my health app so here are some pictures from today's work out:
