Today, I’m recapping last week’s workouts from my first week back to school after Christmas break! Join as I share lessons learned and how I’m moving forward.
Happy Monday, everyone! Can you believe we’ll be halfway through January tomorrow? It doesn’t seem possible–yet here we are. Last week was a whirlwind and we spent the weekend relaxing. In between binging episodes of Mad Men on Netflix I was stalking Instagram for everyone’s WDW Marathon Weekend updates. I definitely had FOMO, but enjoyed living vicariously through all the photos and stories! Anyway, onto the update. Be sure to share your active week in the comments!
Sunday, 1/6/19: The week started with a quick run/walk. The weather was beautiful on Sunday (highs in the 70s), so I couldn’t resist getting outdoors. I’ve been nervous about running during pregnancy, so I took it slow and easy, but enjoyed it as much as I could. 
Monday, 1/7/19: I started the week with a total body workout–my first at 5 a.m. in a long time! It definitely woke me up and helped me get in the right headspace for the day to come. (Even though it was just staff development.)

Tuesday, 1/8/19: Tuesday was the first day at school with students back and I knew I’d be exhausted by 4 p.m. It was a lower body day and one I’m so glad I squeezed in when I did! It made me feel much less guilty about kicking my feet up when I got home.
Wednesday, 1/9/19: After two days of early alarms I was craving a slow down, so I fit in some prenatal yoga and a nice meditation.
Thursday, 1/10/19: Rest day.

Friday, 1/11/19: Friday, I did one of my favorite upper body workouts, appropriately entitled Flex Friday.
Saturday, 1/12/19: It took a good while for me to get moving Saturday, but I finally squeezed in some cardio kickboxing. I have always enjoyed kickboxing and it’s been a great way to get some cardio in during pregnancy since I’m running less!
