I have a crazy schedule today, so I got my tired hiney out of bed and headed to the gym.  They have the music turned up SO loud that I have a hard time hearing my own music.  

I found a new glute workout on pinterest.

50 squats

30 walking lunges

20 jump squats

30 side lunges

50 bridges

You are suppose to do it 3 times, but sadly I could only do it once.   

3 slow miles on the TM.

LLL and B6 after the run.  Stretch and foam roll.  

On a side note, I am really liking all the lifting.  I feel like I am getting stronger.

That work out sounds hard core. Were your legs sore after that? I'm pretty sure I could not even make it through that whole routine once, nice job today.

Thanks Allie! Everything got done and everyone got where they needed to be.

Rachel - I don't think I will be able to walk tomorrow. It was those stupid 50 squats and 20 squat jumps that will make me a cripple :)
