Today I spent 2 hours at the gym...woot woot! Today I tried to pace myself and not overexert myself.

I started off with 20 minutes on the treadmill on an incline. Then I did a set of 100/30lbs on the hip abductor, making sure I am doing a full stretch, pausing, and then after every set of ten I would relax for ten seconds. The hip abductor is supposed to stretch your hips but it also puts a strain on my legs so I made sure that after I walked for 5 minutes on the treadmill at a slow pace (2mph) and then 5 minutes on the peddler to really stretch out and loosen up my legs. Then I spent some time playing basketball which was really fun. I played a game where I would stand at one point on the court, shoot a hoop, and go to the next point. If I missed the hoop, I would go back a point. Sometimes I'd get really far and then miss and end up going back to the start. Then I did a set of 100/35lbs on the ab curl, making sure I pause in the curl and then go fully back to the starting position. Then I did another 5 minutes on the treadmill going slow and then 5 minutes on an arm stretcher because the ab curl machine is hard on my arms. Then I did about 15 minutes on the treadmill again to cool down and then ten minutes doing stretches.

What a workout! Then I had errands to run and then I finally got to eat! I was so hungry afterwards. I had a huge salad, a yogurt with 11g protein, and a protein shake.

In a little bit I'm going to go back and soak in the hot tub. I wish I brought my swim suit when I went, but I really enjoyed my work out and I'm going to love getting a good soaking in.

Can't wait to see what the scale says tomorrow!
