This Week in Workouts: Doubled

Man are those memberships smart. I missed last week's Orange Theory class and ended up going this week on Sunday and Wednesday. Sunday's class instructor thought killing us was entertaining and we were doing minute wall squats while holding a 12.5+ pound weight above our heads. Whaatt?! I know. She is evil. But, the class was great and I am sure I will be thankful for it once my everything stops hurting. 

Tuesday's class was a bit easier and only 45-minutes long. There were no wall squats, which was good since I would have flipped a table if they tried that on me again. Flipped a table. Then, was my first ever (or at least first since I was eight) step class. This one was with my sister-in-law's trainer who I now love as well. The step class was pretty fantastic and what it did for my bum was even better! Whoohoo, bikini workouts! 

Also, as of today the hubs andI have been together 10-years. Wow, does time go quick! These 10-years have been ridiculously awesome and I am so happy he asked me to junior prom all those years ago :)

Sunday: Orange Theory of death

Monday: Aerial Yoga

Tuesday: Rest day

Wednesday: Orange Theory

Thursday: Step Mix Class and Ballet Bum Workout

Friday: Ballet Bum Workout and this Yoga flow.

This Week in Workouts: What a Week!

What a week, and really, what a year this has been already! I feel like the hubs and I have more going on now and more that we have accomplished in the year so far than we did in the entire 2013 combined. So many of the projects and things that have (almost literally) fallen in my lap in the past few weeks are still a bit new to talk about, but trust me, when I am able to talk about them I will be shouting from the P+K mountain.

So, if you are not following me on social networks, now would be the time. Twitter, Facebook, and heck, Instagram are all good ways to stay in touch when some of this news decides to drop. This is not a ploy for more followers, anyone who sees my numbers knows I am not into false followings or buying fans; it is quality over quantity here. I just want to keep our P+K family in the loop about all the exciting things coming up. And trust me, they are exciting! Like can't sleep at night things!!

I am sorry, I wish I had more of an update for you than, "there are exciting secrets you don't know." Especially since these more personal Sunday posts are my favorite and a great time to share all those things all of us are excited about. Since I cannot share my exciting news, what are some exciting things going on in your life? Oh please tell me, otherwise I might just burst. Possibly for real.

One thing I can say is that I have accepted the position of Vice President of my local All Children's Guild. This is something crazy and exciting, and something I never thought I would be doing at the age of 27. Thankfully, the hubs keeps reminding me that 27 is not exactly young and I can handle it. I have some great ideas and high expectations of myself, so this VP gig should be pretty darn awesome!

Thankfully, I have still been able to workout through all of these changes and big news and I have not injured myself from lack of paying attention. Question: Does anyone else have serious issues paying attention when they are excited? I do.

Oh, and to all you amazing Moms out there, Happy Mother's Day to You!!!!!

Sunday: Walked around EPCOT. After the Expedition Everest Challenge, that is all the workout I wanted.

Monday: Rest day [again]

Tuesday: Hot Power Yoga with my sister-in-law. it was a super fun class!

Wednesday: 3-mile jog

Thursday: 2-mile jog

Friday: Rest day

Saturday: Orange Theory with my sister-in-law and 3 other ladies. The class was small and it was all ladies, so the instructor gave us a goal of reaching 2,500 group calories burned. We did it and I contributed 488 to that pot. Whoohooo!
