Perfect timing

Thank the Lord for tonight's workout.
It was just what I needed.
I looked back through my blog and the last time I worked out was February 5th- YIKES! That's a long time ago. Hey, did you know the title of this blog is "kelsalynnFITlog?" Yeah, I might need to work on that ya think?
I feel like I can finally start thinking about exercising again...
Work is work and although it totally sucks right now, the change is over. I don't like where we are now compared to 2 months ago, but at least I know what I have to deal with, what obstacles lie ahead. The big changes are said and done, now I just have to roll with the punches for the rest. The anxiousness that was over my head for the past month is gone.
And then there's the move. We're in and we're slowly closing up the old place. Housekeepers com tomorrow, carpet cleaners come on Friday, we turn the keys in on Monday and our final walk through will be next week sometime. And there's still a tiny bit (understatement of the century) of unpacking yet to do but we're here and even with the boxes, our new place is much more comfortable and we already love it! It fits us!
I feel like I'm no longer in this LIMBO state-of-mind that I've been functioning in for over a month. Time to get back into the daily grind of working, working out, and simply enjoying life.
So, here's my workout:
4 rounds of 8 reps (PUSH from the other day)
65#,65#,55#,55# barbell bench press
push ups w/ ball- one arm on ball, one on floor, do push-up, roll ball to other hand, repeat
45# for all barbell shoulder press
handstand push-ups
tricep dips on the bench w/ feet on an exercise ball- totally hard!
Then I did the elliptical machine for 24 minutes- 5 minutes on level 8, 3 on level 4, repeat 3 times.
I was grunting and sweating and cursing during the weight lifting and it was the perfect medicine!
Now, if only I could find my keyboard so I can set it up and practice before Sanar arrives on Saturday... has anyone seen my flip flops because I can't find those either? Gotta love moving...

Yay! I'm so proud of you. You had a TOUGH month and you didn't fall apart and that's awesome. Go you! It'll be great to get back into a "routine" (whatever that means now a days) and to be back at the gym and just enjoying life instead of stressing over it.
way to get in that workout, girl!
Oh the joys of missing things from moving... I moved over a year ago and I think there are still things that are "missing"! LOL
It's hard to continue with an exercise regime when life is in a transition, but glad things are settling down for you and you got such a great workout in!
