Super-charged Saturday!

After yesterday's day off, and my MUCH needed 11 hours of sleep, I woke up just before 10AM and made breakfast and had some coffee, watched spongebob, and took my time...just hanging out. Saturday morning, no rush for a workout. Then, around 11:30 I started to go crazy and got a rush of energy to get my butt to the gym! Without further delay...
Saturday workout:


Treadmill:
Ran for 35 minutes. 4.20 miles. 
My legs felt GREAT, finally relieved from the soreness of Tuesday/Wednesday's leg workout and run.


Then I went to WORK! Minimal rest periods, I kept moving

Felt SO good and super energizing after having a day off yesterday and a long night of restorative sleep. From Monday-Friday, I wake up around 6:45, so it's nice to have one night to really SLEEP. SLEEP is also essential for successfully maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and for the regulation of your metabolism. Sleep deprivation can cause weight gain. You don't wanna be TIRED AND FAT! LOL. Make it a GOAL to get at LEAST 7-8 hours of sleep per night in order to function better than ever, and feel naturally energized.


And hey, another thought... for all of you girls (and boys) who read my blog and STILL haven't incorporated WEIGHT TRAINING into your workout routine...I'm personally asking you to pick up the nearest set of dumbbells, and hold the longest plank you've ever held, and pay a visit to the squat rack. THANKS!! 


Enjoy the rest of your Saturday!
