Hey everyone! I have a quick weekly workout post for you now and then I’ll be back later with a weekend recap.
It was a quiet week on the workout front because things have been anything but quiet on the life and work front. All good stuff though. And as I say on repeat, part of why I don’t get too stuck on planning workouts is to cut myself some slack when I can’t fit them in. So even though this was a lighter week, I feel good about the quality of my workouts.
Monday
Hot yoga
Tuesday
3 mile run + deadlift and pull up ladder starting at 10, counting down to 1 reps (105# deadlifts, kipping pull ups)
Wednesday
REST
Thursday
1 mile run warm up and CrossFit + hot yoga
4 rounds for time:
9 back squats (105#)
12 ring dips
15 burpees
18 supine toes to bar
400 meter run
This took me 23 minutes. I really pushed the pace on the 400s and kept around a 6:45 pace. I did this workout in the AM and then went to hot yoga later that night to stretch it out.
Friday
30 mins hot yoga (had to leave early for a meeting) + 3 mile run
Saturday
REST
Sunday
Hot yoga
While we’re talking workouts, I have a great new workout outfit to share with you.
As I mentioned last week, I am working with The Track & Field Store here in Charlotte to help spread the word about their amazing line of fitness and lifestyle apparel. The Track & Field Store is a Brazilian company that has just opened a few stores in the US over the last couple of years. They have over 120 stores in Brazil and a few in the US…NYC, LA and Charlotte! The Charlotte store opened over the summer.
Last week they gave me this outfit to test and I love it. The pants are high-waisted (which is my new favorite) and hug in all the right places. The quality of the fabric is awesome. They are soft and thick. The top is extremely lightweight, breathable and a great length. I love flowy tanks and this one is perfect for yoga and running.
You can check out The Track & Field Store lookbook here and if you’re in Charlotte, LA or NYC…visit the store!
I also have to throw in a quick shout about these new Under Armour shoes that I was sent to test. They are super lightweight training and running shoes and I have been loving them for CrossFit/circuit-type workouts as well as hanging out and training clients.
How was your week of workouts?
What workout gear are you loving right now?
This past week has been all about outdoor workouts, because the weather has been beautiful! I am currently loving all the lifestyle styles that prAna has for the upcoming Fall/Winter. Such versatile, stylish, and flattering pieces!
I just looked at their website, and they have some really good stuff! I’m working on mixing it up a little from my typical heat-to-toe lululemon. You should check out track and field!
I love the leggings ๐
Thanks!!
I have become a fan of high waisted pants too! They don’t give me a muffin top like some of the other styles do. That’s always a plus ๐
I just bought the Speed Shorts from Lululemon and I love them! I love high waisted yoga pants too. Extra comfy I think.
Would you say the under armor shoes run true to size?
I size a half up in athletic shoes. My UA shoes are an 8 and I wear 7.5 in dress. Fit great!
