Total Distance

3.00

So, I was going to get up this morning and run with Heidi C but to put it frank, I just wasn't in the mood :). My babes (3 1/2 year old, but still call him my babes) threw up about 8:00ish last night and then was fine but I started feeling sick to my stomach during the night and just had an uneasy stomach when I woke up so again.....I wasn't in the mood to run and I was also a bit apprehensive after my run from Monday ( I know, I need to have a more positive attitude). Sooooooo, I got home from work today and decided to go downstairs to get some sort of workout it. I ended up getting 3 miles in on the Treadmill. I walked for .25 each mile, then ran it out to the mile mark, then walked, etc. This helped with the contracting and didn't kill me off:) Then, I got done running and did 30 minutes of my Physique 57 workout that literally about killed me! Its sad that I used to be able to do the full 57 minutes and actually get through it without wanting to die! I have a long way to go to get back into shape after my baby but at least I will have a baby to show for it! I am excited for that! It's all good! So glad I got something in for the day:)

Your TM workout sounds identical to mine. I can't go more than a mile without stopping to walk :) What kind of WO is Physique 57? I'm trying to find a good video to do right after I have the baby to stay conditioned while I take some time off of running.

Hey Melody! Sorry about the delay in getting back with you!! Physique 57 is actually a pretty intense workout but strength training. It apparently is the same workout that Kelly Rippa does ( :)). It basically KILLS your legs (squats and using a ball to squeeze between your legs until they burn so bad you want to cry). Then you do some floor work, stability work, weights, abs, etc!! The set I bought came with a 57 minute full body workout, 30 minute express body workout, and a 30 minute ab and arm workout. You can actually check it out online if you google Physique 57!! I really like it and used to do it more regularly but then running seemed to take over and now pregnancy has taken over further:)!!! My sister in law introduced me to this and has seen amazing results from it!!! If you want to borrow my video or anything, let me know!!! So good to hear from you!! It's comforting to know that I am not the only one trying to get through this pregnancy and seeing changes in my running!!! I hope that you have a great weekend!
