Hola!
Hope you had a great Tuesday!
I started my day with a 3 mile run and felt like a granny on it. I didn’t even wear a watch. I think all those squats at kettlebell yesterday took their toll on my poor legs. But it was good to get out and run, plus the sun was actually up! Gotta enjoy that sun before we change the clocks again.
BREAKFAST – steel cut oats, almond butter, little granola & ground flax. needed some OJ too.

Then it was off to the dentist for a check up. Oh what fun. Found out that despite wearing a lovely night guard almost every night I have two filings with small cracks that need to be fixed. I also got guilted into finally getting a Sonicare toothbrush. I have some gum issues and if things don’t improve I may need some gum therapy of some sort. So the Sonicare it is.

During my lunch break I headed home to walk the pooch. We had a nice leisurely walk, he did lots of sniffing… the usual.
LUNCH- Flat Out w/ turkey, provolone, hummus, tabbouleh with a side of beets & goat cheese.

Then it was back to work and I plugged on through the day. Took a break for my obsession….. yep, Pineapple Chobani. This time with a little granola.

After work I walked the pooch and got ready to drag go to kettlebell with the hubby. Operation get a buff hubby is slowly progressing. I think this past weekend of skiing was a real eye opener for the hubby…. he is a tad out of shape. But that is what happens when you work….. ALL. THE. TIME. Well that is just my opinion.
Workout
As Much Work As Possible in 6:00
Sit Ups -15
Heavy Swings- 25
As Much Work As Possible in 20:00
Clean + Strict Press 1/1, 2/2, 3/3
Renegade Row 6/6 (these suckers were HARD, not easy to remain level)
Suitcase Deadlift 6/6
Yet another workout that looks so easy…. but is SO NOT! The hubby was a trooper though and did a great job!! I was a sweaty drippy mess after that. Now the debate….. do I go to kettlebell in the morning?
We scrambled home and I went right to work whipping up a quick dinner.
DINNER- panko crusted baked cod w/ baked sweet potato and steamed broccoli

YUM! If I do say so myself.
My poor hubby is hobbling. It reminds me of my first couple weeks of kettlebell. It hurts, but it is SO worth it. I feel stronger than ever. However, not sure if it helps my running speed…… although I think that is because I’ve slacked a bit in the speed work area. I REALLY need to get on that!! Debating if a rest day tomorrow might be a good idea so that my legs are fresh for speed work on Thursday?
How do you balance you strength training & cardio? Do you struggle with it?
Have a great night!!

It was picture perfect.
