I came across this the other day and it made me laugh so hard! I shared it with a couple of pages I follow on Facebook and the comments were spot-on! I think what makes this so funny to me is that in the early 90's I was a member of a gym and went religiously everyday to an aerobics class and I actually wore several outfits like this! Can you imagine? I went out in public in this - I would just throw a jacket or sweatshirt on and go. Crazy! SO Jane Fonda-ish!!!
Well, I am glad to say I started the new year off the right way and did not skip my workout. I was talking on the phone with my sister-in-law yesterday and I was telling her everything I needed to do and working out was one of them, she just said "Oh, you don't need to workout today." I thought, you know...that's the kind of mentality that keeps couch potatoes on their couch! So, I was very glad to workout and sweat, and yes! I did feel better afterwards! :)
Today's workout is for time, 21-15-9 reps of:
pushups
bench dips
CrossFit situps
Excited to see this is one I can AS RX'D! Ahhh...the joy, the joy. :D
I forgot to mention this yesterday, but you all know I did the Squat-A-Thon for December, well there's a new fitness schedule for January as well. Don't worry - it's not all squats. I just glanced at it, but I'm not even sure squats are involved at all. Anyway, I will do yesterday's and today's exercises from that. I'm just calling it January Fitness.
January 1st - plank for 30 seconds
Today - 10 pushups - lucky for me, pushups are part of today's CrossFit, so I can count those! :)

6:36!!!!!!!! Woo-hoo!! Most times are between 4:?? and 9:??, so not too shabby!!! The bench dips were killing me, though! Pushups weren't too bad, and I'm SO proud I can do CrossFit situps and I will admit I did not need to rest at all during the situps - yay me!!
Since this was such a short workout, I also did workout #1 on my stationary bike, keeping it between 16 and 18 mph. I rode 8.24 miles in 30 minutes and burned 160.6 calories. It felt like a LOT more than 160.6 calories!!!
I also did the 30 minute plank that I forgot to do yesterday and let me just say...that was hard! I was staring at that timer, begging for 30 seconds to hurry up and get here! I'm counting the pushups I did with CrossFit against my 10 pushups I was to do today. So, technically that was 4 workouts today. Whoo-hoo!!! I wonder what's in store for tomorrow? :)
