This dude was passed out on the stoop of a bar. Considering last call isn't till 4 AM in most NYC bars, I'm not surprised. I guess he really goes all out for mother's day!
Once at the gym, I did a slightly modified version of last week's strength workout, this time focusing mainly on arms and abs. 3x12 reps of each of the following circuits:
- rear lateral raise, 7.5 lbs
- dumbbell deadlift, 20 lbs
- dumbbell bench press, 25 lb barbell
- dumbbell shoulder press, 7.5 lbs
- overhead triceps extension, 12.5 lbs, held in both hands (increased this one)
- biceps curl, 12.5 lbs (another increase)
- medicine ball twists, 10 lbs
- standard crunches
- plank, 30 seconds
- reverse crunches
- single-leg raises
- leg hover, 15 seconds
Breakfast was eaten once I got home!
I mixed up the standard TJ's High Fiber cereal, scoop of vanilla Sun Warrior protein powder, spoonful of almond butter, splash of water combo, then chopped up an apple and microwaved it on high for a minute and a half before adding it to the bowl. I poured on some almond milk, then doused it in cinnamon- I think this may be one of the best breakfast bowls I've had in awhile.
Why don't I microwave apples more often? They get so sweet and comforting, slightly reminiscent of apple pie filling. I said slightly :)
I have my last class ever this morning, followed by an exam, and then I'm headed for the train home. Hard to believe this day is here! I kind of feel like my mom should be here, snapping a photo of me with my lunchbox. We could put it in a dual frame with the one from my first day of Pre-K...
Have a marvelous Monday!
Tell me the worst school picture you ever had. In fifth grade, I had the great idea to wear my hair mostly down except for two skinny braids on either side of my middle part. Cute. And in seventh, I wore cinnamon-colored lipstick. It went smashingly with my baby pink hair ribbon and the light blue rubber bands on my braces.
PS- My SunWarrior giveaway is still going on!
