Day 8 - 7/19/14

As I was getting ready for bed, it dawned on me that I completely forgot to post about today. So here we go:

Breakfast: Blue Machine Naked Juice
Lunch: We had a lunch date at Olive Garden, because we were out and about running errands; Salad, 2 bread sticks, a couple glasses of unsweetened plain iced tea, and a delicious 5 cheese Ziti (6 cheese if you count the light layer of Parmesan they added on top).
Dinner: Apparently this meal has become optional... I really need to get better at this, as well as eating light snacks between meals...
Post workout: 16 ounces of Preanut butter and chocolate protein smoothie made with unsweetened Almond milk, 1/2 cup of spinach and 2 bananas.

Workout:
Elliptical machine: 30 minutes on the "speed bump" setting, at the max level (9); Basically the way this works is you get about 1 - 2 minutes at a low setting, 30 - 60 seconds at a medium-low setting, then 30 - 90 seconds at the max setting. It was pretty intense, and my legs were screaming murder by the end, but it was an awesome workout.

Arm curls: 1 set of 10 reps at 50 pounds, and 3 sets of 10 reps at 40 pounds (this was a little too easy, so I'll probably increase it next time)

Butterflies: 2 sets of 10 reps at 25 pounds per arm , and 3 sets of 10 reps at 20 pounds per arm

Leg Curls: 4 sets of 10 at 50 pounds (this was a little too easy, so I'll probably increase it next time)

Lat Pulls: 3 sets of 10 reps at 40 pounds

Triceps Press Rows: 4 sets of 10 reps at 40 pounds

Overall I feel pretty good about todays workout. But I need to start going earlier in the day so that I have more time before the gym closes.
