Day 5

Well guys today is day 5 of my 21 day challenge and I'm down 4lbs, feeling pretty good but I am nowhere near where I want to be, I've gained lots of weight lately and about 25 lbs since my husband has come home from deployment so I'm basically back to the beginning, bummer. I just wanted to share with you guys my workout routine for yesterday. EVERYDAY I do cardio no less than 5 miles. So yesterday I did 5.2 miles on the crossramp and for the first mile I put the crossramp up to 20 which is pretty much like doing high knees it works your gluteus, quads, hamstrings, and calves, I set my resistance to 7 and I did that for the first mile, then for 4 miles I set the crossramp to 10 which works your gluteus and quads and kept my resistance at 7. Before that I ran 1 mile then had to pee lol then went back and ran another mile so a total of 2 miles running. All together I did 7.2 miles in cardio last night, after cardio I try and do some weight lifting and each day I focus on a specific body part/muscle group. Yesterday after cardio I did weight lifting for my back. Below I will post pictures of the workouts I did with an explanation of my reps and weight used. ( these pictures are not mine and are obviously not of me I simply got them from the internet)

That's all I did for back workouts because by the end of my workout my back was so sore and almost numb lol I hope this helps you all who are on your own journey of getting fit. I'm excited that I'm already seeing results and I can't wait to share my AFTER PICTURE with you all.
