Stressful Times; Working Through It

Not such a good week, but going to the gym can be good therapy. Besides not going won't help at all. I have a great, new work out for myself. Since I usually dread leg day, I have written a plan that breaks them up like Quads and Biceps or Glutes and Shoulders. I do 15 minutes of cardio to warm up, then do 4 exercises for one of the muscle groups I'm working. When I finish those 4 exercises, I do 15 more minutes of cardio and then the 4 exercises for the other muscle group. I like breaking it up this way. Sometimes 30 minutes of cardio is too long if done all at once. Anyway, I will follow this plan for about 3 weeks before switching it up again. By the way, FitnessPal has added a pedometer to the App that keeps track of your steps all day if you have your phone with you. It automatically subtracts the calories burned from total. Love, love it!!
