6, YES 6, 30-day challenges: Day 7

Today did not start of great and it really hasn’t improved much.  I was not able to exercise first thing this morning like I have been doing everyday since I started this.  Such is life… and an upset stomach.  So instead of knocking the challenges out all at one time, I paced myself over a couple of hours this afternoon.  And there was definitely no diet in any way shape or form today.

So, this morning, in an attempt to calm my stomach, I had a few powdered donuts.  And yes it worked.  Or maybe it worked because I was also drinking Ginger Ale.  Before I started exercising this afternoon, I had a banana.

Today’s exercises seemed more difficult, but I think that is because I wasn’t feeling 100%.

Abs:  40 sit ups, 20 crunches, 20 leg raises, and 30 secs planks.

Squat:  90 regular squats.

Arms:  15 arm circles, 15 floor tricep dips, 15 wall push ups, and 5 opposite arm & leg raises.

Butt:  15 goblet squats, 15 sumo squats, 15 donkey kicks, and 5 back extensions.

Thighs:  15 side lunges, 15 sumo squats, 15 clock lunges, and 5 forward lunges.

Cardio:  1 min 10 secs bear crawls, 1 min 10 secs high knees, and 1 min 10 secs butt kicks.

I ended by day with a bowl of Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup and Nabisco unsalted top crackers.  And, of course, Ginger Ale.

Now I’m tired.  I think it just might be time to go to bed.

Good night!  Please come back tomorrow  to see how day 8 goes.  I know it will be much better than today!
