Back on Track

Breakfast

Today was the first day back to school! Although, it didn't feel so spectacular because my class didn't start until 3pm and it only lasted just over an hour. Plus, I don't have class tomorrow. Odd way to start the term!

I started my day with a big bowl of cereal with almond milk and a drizzle of peanut butter.



I also took Zeke for a nice long walk through the snowy trails before hitting the gym.


Morning Snack

After the gym, I had a post-workout snack. I loaded up a plain rice cake with light cream cheese and strawberries.


I also spent some time blogging and relaxing in the sunshine with Zeke. We're both share a love of sunshine!


Lunch

Before class, I made myself a steak fajita for lunch. I topped a small ancient grains tortilla with lettuce, orange bell pepper slices, red onion, steak, and light mozzarella cheese. I also added in a bit of salsa later on. It was incredible!



I also made myself a tea to keep me warm while I waited in the chilly outdoors to get to class.


Dinner

I wasn't able to snap a photo of dinner before I rushed out the door to spend some time at the barn. I made myself a nacho pizza, but was running late so I ate it on the go.

Workout

I managed to get in a great workout today! After a nice long warm-up walk with Zeke and walk to the gym,  I hopped on the elliptical for a 30 minute power session. I was sweating all over by the time I was done. Then, I hit the weights! I did a back and chest workout by incorporating a variety of exercises with handweights.

Chest & Back Workout (3 sets of 10 reps)
  • Bent-Over Row (20lbs each)
  • Deadlift (60lbs total)
  • Bent-Over Fly (15lbs each)
  • Chest Press (40lbs total)
  • Chest Fly (15lbs each)
This workout felt great and left my arms shaking by the end. I can't wait to put in another great workout tomorrow!
