Sun & Spin

*** Ok, not sure what’s going on but I can’t seem to upload my pics… I’ll be back to try again in a little bit later! ***

Wow, another gorgeous day here… I feel sorry for those of you who are not able to enjoy this awesome weather… I am in heaven… I woke up at 6am wide awake this morning, which was nice because I woke up to the sun shining & the birds chirping haha… On my way to the gym I had a Clif Z Bar chocolate brownie flavor to get me going… I got to the gym a half hour before spinning started so I did a bunch of lower body exercises (squats using the machine, leg press, thigh abductor, etc.)… Spinning was great, as usual… It just puts me in such a good, accomplished mood all day… I worked out my hardest and apparently burned 642 calories between spinning & my lifting workout… nice!

I usually eat as soon as I get home from the gym on Saturdays, but I knew today would be a little rushed so I hopped in the shower as soon as I got home… I really liked this “routine” better because I could really sit and enjoy my breakfast, which is what matters, right To recover from spinning, I had 1/2 cup of oats with 1/2 scoop of whey isolate protein powder mixed in (chocolate), some flax, 1/2 cup of kashi go lean, 1 egg white, and a handful of strawberries… definitely a protein packed meal, so let’s hope it keeps me fueled for at least the next 4 hours!

I am leaving in a little bit with Bill to go to a cookout with his friends from college who he hasn’t seen in a while… They live about 2 hours away, so we have a bit of a drive; however, It is a perfect day for a long drive!

I hope you all have a fantastic Saturday! Not sure if I will get around to posting later, but I’ll definitely return on Sunday, since I’ll be trapping myself inside working on my paper!
