A rainbow of swiss chard leaves stained our tilapia kinda purple yesterday. Meanwhile, Ramiro says that every time he burps it smells like carrots. (What a nicely packaged veggie -- portable, small, light & orange! Our favorite color). We're experimenting with different veggies, and each have a couple of favorites: Ramiro loves broccoli & carrots because of their ease of consumption (he just eats them raw) and i'm into a zucchini & eggplant kick.
Muscle pain. Lunges are deathly. Not taking a beak in between sets it literally impossible for us. The pain!! Will showed Ramiro a pistol lunge & it kinda scared me -- this program gets harder?! It was enough to scare me into delaying jumps for 3 hours this morning, but I got them done.
Confession: we both skipped our jumps yesterday (we might have influenced each other in that regard..). I tried to make up with it by biking up the hill to campus today. Ramiro managed to hurt his left leg from jumping rope, which is actually an improvement considering that before he only felt it on his right leg, so maybe it's evening out. He's doing the walking replacement for another day until that heals up enough for him to go back to the rope.
Nothing really else to report. We've both just barely managed to get back into our routine, so here we come, week three!
I love that you're discovering new favorite veggies!
ReplyDeleteI experienced muscle pain coming and going. Some days I wouldn't feel sore at all and then I would wonder if I had done enough during my workout. Other days I would be exhausted after working out but no soreness.
Yes, the program gets harder. But you get stronger right along with it!
Yeah, I could see from other peoples blogs that it's just going to get harder. Especially since they are talking about certain exercises that I've never heard of. I'm hoping they will be easier by the time we get there.
ReplyDeleteYou are so right about carrots. Sweet, crunchy, great when you're thirsty, and orange!
