Workout Playlist and Let's Go Canes!

So, those two beers really filled me up last night, and by the time I went to sleep (10:30.... I'm lame), I wasn't very hungry.  But when the boys (Future Husband, his best man, and his brother) came home at 2:00 AM drunk as skunks, I woke up and realized I was QUITE hungry.  So, I ate a slice of bread while laying in bed and then went back to sleep. :)

 

We're going to go watch the Hurricanes whoop Virginia at the bar today, so I knew I had to squeeze in a early morning workout.  Before I left, I had 1/2 cup of Grape Nuts, skim milk, and a sliced banana

Grape Nuts is one of the few dry cereals I portion out.  It's 200 calories for 1/2 cup, so it's really easy to accidentally inhale 500 calories if you aren't paying attention.

At the gym, I did 20 minutes on the elliptical and then another 10 on the indoor rowing machine.  I did resistance intervals while on the elliptical to make it more interesting (2 minutes at Level 6, 2 minutes at Level 8, 2 minutes at Level 10, and 2 minutes at Level 12).

 

I love the indoor rower because it's a cardio exercise that also works my arms.  It's nice to give my leggies a break!

 

I also did some arm strength exercises, like bicep curls and tricep dips.

 

Here are my statistics:

 

  • Duration: 38 minutes
  • Average Heart Rate: 139 bpm
  • Maximum Heart Rate: 171 bpm
  • Calories Burned: 254

Since we're going to Buffalo Wild Wings to eat lunch and watch the Canes game, I just had a small snack when I came home. 

 

I had a plum and a Z-Bar.
