Back to switching between HIIT cardio and strength training, six days on, one day off. Here's to seeing how much progress I can make this summer!

20 minutes of HIIT cardio on the Gazelle

Meant to do cardio yesterday, but my legs were still sore from the strength training the day before. Truthfully, they're still a bit sore today!

With a mere 21 days left before I start back to work, I am going to do my best to exercise each and every day until then. After examining my last really successful run, I have decided to stick with just cardio for now. After these next three weeks, I will probably add some strength training back in for variety's sake. Right now I just need something more habit-forming, I think.

Started tonight with only 15 minutes of the 20-minute HIIT cardio set I usually do. That's okay, 15 minutes is better than none!

WOW ! you are doing great !

Grrr....no exercise today. Was too busy geeking out over Heroes, the show on NBC. That's okay, though, I've been wanting to exercise in the mornings instead of evenings anyway. I can get up in the morning and exercise and then I'll be on the right schedule. Right??

Got in my 20 minutes of HIIT cardio first thing this morning. I found that I enjoy that endorphine rush much more when I'm more awake!

2 hours of mega grocery shopping instead of actual cardio workout. Will I actually get any "legit" exercise in today? Maybe I'll do some toning today instead. Tune in to find out!
