Yesterday's workout


I felt so motivated yesterday and really energised after a great sleep and a yummy smoothie (made with one banana, a handful of strawberries, another handful of blueberries, a splash of milk and a dash of chocolate protein powder).

So, I went to the gym and decided to run 8k on the treadmill (I was going to run outside but it was raining so I opted out..). When I got to 7.5k I still felt like I had loads of energy left, and was enjoying listening to my new workout playlist I made whilst eating breakfast, so I just went for the 10k. I felt amazing after (although I was quite red and very sweaty) and really proud of myself because I haven’t run that far since long before Christmas.




After that I did some cardio/strength exercises (as shown in the videos from bykiki in my previous post) and then some ab exercises (shown in the second video) – however I don’t have all the gym equipment featured in those videos at home so I just did the ones that involved the bench, exercise ball and 5kg weight.

Then, in the afternoon I went for a nice half-hour walk with my mum and the dogs.

The exercise in the morning made me feel so positive and happy all day – even though I’m a little sore now!
