This morning I did: Fitness with PJ - 30-Minute Burn Circuit with Dumbbells - For Women Over 40
Pretty good workout. I didn't have alot of time so I'm glad it had a warm up and cool down included. I did some normal lunges and deadlifts instead of the get ups she was doing - I know my knees don't like that move. I also did some skull crushers at some point - can't remember now where I fitted that in.
Not very good activity-wise this week. Only walked into town on Tuesday, but otherwise quite sadly sedentary. Bad weather and busy work days are my unacceptable excuse again. I'm looking forward to a walk to the cathedral later for the free lunch time concert though, and the weather's looking great for that. I'll also go to a new Lidl nearby. They're featuring greek cuisine this week, according to the app, so I'm hoping to get a spinach and feta pastry swirl I really enjoyed when I had it in Turkey a few years ago for dinner.
And this is exactly why I struggle to keep to my calorie deficit - because I'll pick up something from the bakery section for lunch as well. I won't feel guilty about what I'm having - I'm still tracking it all and some day in the future the planets will align and I'll be able to get to under 1700 calories and reach my goal again. I need to make some tweaks like not having garlic naan for dinner every night - evening if it is with a fairly healthy vegetarian curry. I'm aiming for the second week of June for the start of all those little tweaks. Today - I'll be enjoying my pastry!
I felt a bit of - not pain - but slight stiffness/discomfort in my glutes and hips this week. Hopefully just doms I'm not used to for upping my weight recently, but I hope it doesn't progress to anything worse. I always try to do a stretch after each workout so will keep that up because I shudder to think what it would have felt like if I hadn't.
Hope you all have a a fabulous Friday and a great weekend too! xxx
