A Mini Goal


By Meals and Miles (Visit website)




I made this morning a cross training day. After a quick walk around the apartment complex with Abbie, I popped in my Biggest Loser: The Workout: Cardio Max DVD. I know it seems strange to have a Biggest Loser DVD, but this one always kick my butt. I only own 3 work out DVDs and this is one of them. I haven?t done it in a while and it surely had me breathing heavy at the end. J


After I completed the 50 minute DVD I set out on some ab work.



50 Crunches
50 Reverse Crunches
50 Side to Side Crunch w/ 5 lb weight in hand
25 Combination crunches with weight between the knees
50 Scissor kicks
12 Pilate side planks where your hand crosses under your torso (each side)
30 Second Plank (x2)
50 Chest lifts (on stomach)
50 Leg lifts (on stomach)
50 Combinations (on stomach)

I tired to explain what I did the best I can. I am trying to experiment with different ab moves to get the best work out I can for my abs.


You may have noticed I have been trying to get a regular schedule going with my crunches; I want to announce that there is a reason behind this. For Halloween this year I have decided to go as a Hula Girl, which means I will be prancing around in my bikini all night. I figured after all of the hard work I have put myself through this last year, that I deserve to be able to prance around in a bikini. J My only problem lies in my abs. My abs are something I have not really cared about before, so I am taking this as an opportunity to start caring. My Mini Goal will be to have decent abs by the time Halloween rolls around so I can proudly wear that bikini.


Notice how I said ?decent abs? and not ?six pack? I know Halloween is less then a month away, so I?m not crazy. J I just want them to look tight and not like jelly.


My plan will be to do at least a 10 minute ab workout every other day leading up to Halloween. I am still trying to break into a routine that will have me waking up sore after a good session. I will keep tweaking my routine until I find one that burns (in a good way). I will be sure to keep everyone posted and hopefully I will have no problem being the Hula Girl at the end of the month. J Any suggestions you guys have to pull off that bikini will be greatly appreciated!


For fuel this morning after my work out I had some yummy cereal.


 


My mix included ½ cup of Kashi Go Lean, ½ cup of 365 Brand Peanut Butter Puffs, a small Plum, and 2 spoonfuls of Applesauce.


Alright, time to get back to work. Have a great Tuesday everyone!
