Gettin' my sweat on...

I stole that phrase from my sister, Kayleen. She says that occationally in reference to working out, and I find it amusing. So, I'm a thief.

This is the program I've been on the for the past 3 weeks (and MANY more to come.) Kayleen made it up. She's my personal trainer. :)

Monday:
-20 minutes of intense cardio
-leg press...3 sets of 15 (I've upped it to 20)
-20 lunges with 10 lb. weights then 20 air squates...repeat that 3 MORE times
-inner thigh press...3 sets of 15 (also upped it to 20)

Tuesday & Thursday:
-20 min. run
-20 min. stair stepper
-20 min. elliptical/bike

Wednesday:
-20 min. of intense cardio
-2 sets of the following:
-15 reps of bicep curl (10 lbs.)
-15 reps of over head lift (10 lbs.)
-15 reps of side lift (5 lbs.)
-15 reps of straight in front lift (5 lbs.)
-lay down and pull 20 lb. bar over head

Friday:
-20 min. intense cardio
-3 back machines doing 3 sets of 20
-3 sets of 20 on ab machine
-50 crunches
-50 side crunches

This exercise program plus a diet that's not too strict...just staying off carbs Tuesdays and Thursdays and then limiting my carb intake to good, healthy carbs on the other days...plus LOTS of veggies and fruits in between meals and a good, hardy breakfast (lots of egg whites and oatmeal(on the carb days) has really helped me look better, and more importantly FEEL great!
This is me about 4 months ago when I first moved to Utah.

This is me now.

I don't know if you can tell a difference, but I sure can. And, I know this is just a face shot. I can feel somewhat of a difference in my body, but it always seems to leave from my face first. I'm way excited to see what happens in the next 4 months! I LOVE gettin' my sweat on!
