Happy Labor Day weekend! Anyone up to anything fun? Yesterday I went to Yonkers to visit my good friend Samantha who just had a gorgeous baby girl. Holding this teeny tiny 3 week old baby made me realize that this was probably the youngest baby I’ve ever held (granted I’ve held maybe 2 babies in my entire life…) I was joking that at 8 pounds she was lighter than the dumbbells I had bicep curled earlier that day.
I’ve been at my parent’s house in Westchester since last night visiting Jeremy. I’m hoping the weather cooperates today and we can spend some of it outside either kayaking at my Grandma’s house or riding on the amazing bike trail here. Fingers crossed for some outdoors time!
Workout Recap
This week ended up being another killer on the workout front.
Monday: Strength @ Uplift
Tuesday: Signature Fhix @ The Fhitting Room
Wednesday: Strength @ Uplift
Thursday: Box & Bell @ BFX and 2 hour trapeze
Friday: REST
Saturday: Burn @ BFX
Sunday: Strength @ Uplift
What worked:
Anytime I can get in 3 sessions at Uplift is a solid week if you ask me! Not only is it one of my favorite class, it’s also a solid strength focused class and I always leave there feeling like I had an awesome workout.
My trapeze class Thursday was SO good. I don’t know if it was the cappuchino I chugged at 7:30pm before class (oops) or just where I am these days but I left there practically skipping I was so giddy after a class of throwing solid layouts.
What didn’t work:
First… I needed that rest day way earlier than I took it. By Thursday night I was a hurting puppy and probably would’ve cancelled my trapeze class on a account of soreness if they didn’t have a 72 hour cancellation policy (yup 72 hours!). I’m happy I went though because I ended up having a super strong class—luckily my soreness was in my legs and not my upper body.
There were a lot of similar workouts this week—Fhitting Room is HIIT as was Burn at BFX. I would have preferred to switch out one of those for something lower impact like a spin class.
Any exciting labor day weekend plans?
Anyone else wait too late to take a rest day this week…
Hope you had a lovely Labor Day! I’ve been wanting to take a class at Uplift for a while. Need to make that happen this month, for sure.
Way to go with the Trapeze. I’ve only done that once, but would love to go back. Love how you’re trying all these new classes!
You definitely have to hit up Uplift, it’s my favorite!
Let’s hit up a new class somewhere sometime, I’m always up for checking out new classes!
