Happy Saturday!

There is something about weekends that is just so wonderful; I love that I get to spend all day with my sweet husband.  The weather here in Central Arkansas is pretty nasty today, its drizzly and humid (making my garage workout that much more fun :-)).  I hope you all are enjoying your weekend as much as I am!

Lately, I've been getting more from those inspirational quotes you see on Pinterest.  I think it's partly because I know that I have other plans for my career.  I wan't my passion for fitness to coincide with my career, so very badly.  These inspirational quotes are starting to make me think it might be possible and I am going to try to start taking steps toward making it happen.  Wish me luck!...Oh and please share any and all tips for making this change; I need all the help I can get!

Tomorrow, I will be 11 weeks along in my pregnancy.  I am still able to exercise pretty intensely, which I'm thankful for.  But, I read that I'm going to start gaining a pound a week.  Eek!  When my belly gets all big, HIIT training will have to wait till after the baby is born.

This quote has helped me through so many workouts: (found it on Pinterest of course)

Today's humid, super sweaty workout:
Set Gymboss timer for 50/15 (50 sec work/15 sec rest)
I did 3 rounds of this:

sumo squat holding sandbag or weights in front of you
Curl to press alt. arms w/15lb kettlebell
2 squats, 2 jump lunges
crossbody push up w/jump up

deadlift w/curtsy lunge w/25lb kettlebell

Then 2 rounds of this also (50/15):
goblet squat w/25lb kettlebell
push up w/fly & reach through
half burpee w/front row w/sandbag (can use dumbbells or whatever you have)
Side burpee w/push up

Thanks for stopping by, I'm off to fix chicken and asparagus for dinner.  Yum!
