Feb 1 - 6

Monday - nothing
Tuesday - 12 minutes of planks in rotation
Wednesday - walked on the treadmill for 40 minutes, did 2 miles, walked for 15 minutes with 25 pounds in weight on my head in a box - trying to work my muscles to have good posture like people in Africa
I was thinking 25 pounds would be a lot, but looks like they carry more than that. It was a good workout, made me sweat just walking. Also made my arms burn as I held it to balance it on my head (most of the time with both hands) I thought I probably looked pretty silly. Just trying to change things up. After googling for that picture, I found this pinterest board. I think I'll look more into the "Alexander Technique" whatever that is.
Thursday - 12 minutes of planks
Friday - 2.5 miles on the treadmill as I listened to Imagine Dragons Smoke + Mirrors. Good cd. 45 minute walk and I did different arm motions with each song
Saturday - 12 minutes planks

Jan 25 - 30

Monday - Had a good 45 minute workout doing Cize: Full Out
Tuesday - 12 minutes of planks in 60 sec rotations
Wednesday - Owen is 6 months old! It was a busy day, got in 100 romanian deadlifts and that was all I could do before kids needed me.
Thursday - Cize: In the Pocket. I got the dance okay, was an okay workout (usually not as intense when you're learning the choreography) but the song was horrible at the end. Usually I can endure the boring rhythm as you learn the moves with hopes that the song at the end will make it worth it, but it was really lame, I don't even want to do this one again. I wrote down the moves and will try use them to a song I like.
Friday - nothing
Saturday - 12 minutes of planks

Jan 18 - 23

Monday - 2 mile walk along the beach, little bit of swimming, heading home tonight at 10 pm Hawaii time (1 am Utah time)
Tuesday - Did this circuit four times for 24 minutes =
  • 4 plank rotation 
  • 1 minute jog
  • 1 minute sprint 
Wednesday - nothing. Eating pretty good, no sweets (cause I have a new years commitment to not buy any junk this whole year, so if I don't buy the chocolate, that makes it pretty simple to not eat it)
Thursday - nothing - was going to get a workout after the kids were in bed, started to get them to bed at 8:30, but then we all got really into reading Mosiah 18 - half way into chapter 24 before we called it quits. Hyrum "This is intense!" Wes "Keep reading!" Abi "I dont' get what's going on..." and then we'd explain it all again in kid speak.
Friday - nothing
Saturday - planks: 2 min center, 1 min yoga, 1 min center 2 min yoga, sides on hand for as long as I could, got 38 seconds each
Sunday - played in the snow with the kids in the back yard today from 3-6, we made a pretty cool fort, and I shoveled a ton of snow, so maybe that counts for something even though I don't workout on the Sabbath Day, was glad to play with my kids.

Monday - 12 minutes of planks at 6 am this morning.

Wednesday - nothing
Thursday - Hello Hawaii!
Friday - Workout at the Marriott fitness center, little bit on treadmill, little bit of upper body, then about a mile jog outside along the shoreline walkway. Then spent the day walking around the Polynesian Cultural center
