I’m happy to report that my do-over week was a smashing success. All three Winter Shape Up Week 2 workouts were completed as well as a great cardio day and a perfectly stretchy yoga class.
Monday – oh hello squats…my hips hate you.
Tuesday – sweaty face cardio time…
Wednesday – tested myself with heavier weights…
Thursday – even sandwiched into a crowded room I got lost in yoga for a while…
Friday – just way too busy for a workout.
But that’s what Saturdays are for, no?
I did skip out on a long walk or hike yesterday but in my defense I had a very important puzzle to deal with. And it was cold outside. And I had hot coffee.
What I learned re: WSU Week 2: Squats really do get easier. On day one I could barely get through the regular set but by day three I was handling the holds and pulses pretty well. I actually missed the tabata skipping from week one. I loved the Split-Squats with Bicep Curls. Who knew?!
Week Three looks a little scary with it’s burpees (!!!) and frog crunches. Help!

I admire your motivation, girl!
How much weight are you squatting now?
Mostly just body weight at this point. Depending on the style of squat...sometimes a 6 lb ball, sometimes a couple of 5 lb weights. I'm taking it easy on my hips just yet.
