So there you have it!
I felt SO amazing after today’s workout. You know those workouts that leave you drenched in sweat, glowing and energized?? That’s how I felt today. Nothing beats it.
The workout:
- Duration: 54 mins.
- Speed: 3.8 mph, incline 15%
- Max heart rate: 162 bpm
- Avg heart rate: 148 bpm
- Feel the burn: 454 kcals
This hill workout is tough, tough, tough! It was the same workout as the past couple days only I walked a bit fast (3.8mph vs 3.6/3.7). I also did 2 side planks (50 sec each-full arm extension) and a downward dog for kicks.
I studied my food safety manual while I exercised and my attention span capped out at 30 mins. :D Same with yesterday. At that point I just don’t want to be studying while working out. It is a great way to kill two birds with one stone, though! Now all I have to do tonight is a quick review.
The other day I came across Spring and Summer 2009 colour pallet trends by TLF. Apparently, TLF ‘forecasts’ the colour trends 21 months in advance!
Here they are for Spring/Summer 2009. TLF divides the colours into 3 categories: Chic, Classic, and casual. Click on the image below to enlarge!
What colour pallet do you like the best?
I think my favourite is the classic colour pallet. That or casual. I think the chic would wash me out too much with all those beiges.
This is what it says about the classic:
The Classic world is deeply inspired by colors of the Mediterranean beaches, where the strong appeal of the sea combines with the period of figurative arts. Flaming and almost primary colours convey strength and energy, but drive us towards a measured chromatic indiscipline through creative and post-futuristic combinations, daring with creative couplings.
Awwww…takes me back to our mediterranean honeymoon!!!! *sigh :D
It’s Office night…yawhoo. Have a great night!!
Tomorrow I will be showing you experiment #2 with my tofu! Did it turn out? We shall see…I will also be doing another round of your favourite- FAQ’s!! :) Lots of great questions to address.
I tend to zone out when trying to study while working out. I’ll finish a chapter, and barely remember reading it! I guess I just turn the pages periodically…
I never understand how people can read and work out at the same time! I think I would get motion sickness!
BTW Angela, I had this amazing mushroom goat cheese pizza the other night, and I thought of you. Why? Welllll….it was made with this delicious, gluten-free CHICKPEA crust!! I have no idea how they made it, but I figured if anyone could figure it out, it would be you! It was just so good!
See, I loooove jump training and things that switch up every 30 seconds to 2 minutes. If I was trying to read and do that, I probably would end up lowering my intensity or getting motion sickness… or all of the above! XD That’s why I just get my studying done before I workout. Mucho easier that way.
Hmm. I love the chic pallete, but I don’t think they would work for me. I can only pull off autumn/jewel tone colors. XD Which is fine, because I love those colors.
Ha, I don’t have to designate a specific area of the fridge that my bf can’t touch – he can’t ever seem to find anything in there even if it’s staring him the face!
Thanks for the show!
I love the classic combo! Loved seeing your fridge – I love PC products too!
I agree, I like the classic combo as well. The chic combo would drain any one.. the colours are just too bland.
did you say chickpea flour crust???? YUMMY! I must look into this…
Can’t wait to see the tofu experiment! I also love the peak into your fridge :)
Wow, that is a clean fridge!!! You should see mine, it is embarrasing…lol
I had no idea avacados go in the fridge once ripe. Great tip! :)
Wow that is a surplus of kale! I’m sure you’ll use it up quickly with all your green smoothies. I finally tried one today and loved it :)
I choose the classic pallet :)
Wow tons of kale! I tried your green monster today for the first time, I plan to recap it later tonight!
I love sneaking a peek into other peoples’ fridges – especially when they’re filled with healthy, yummy good stuff like yours! On MTV Cribs, the fridge-showing is my favorite part of the show haha.
I’m totally excited to hear about the hummus recipe for tomorrow :)
Great workout! I felt that good after mine yesterday too. I just love it when you feel much more energized after you work out. I think it’s great that you do the planks with your cardio… as Jillian says “it maximizes calorie burn!” haha.
Btw, did you mention how long the tofu green monster held you over the other day? I may have missed it.
Hi,
Does putting ripe avocado in the fridge make them last a little longer? I love avocado. :-)
Thanks.
