Memorial day weekend is finally upon us! This last week has
been a super exciting/crazyyyy one for me! I got engaged to the love of my life
last Wednesday, I started my birthday celebrations this past Saturday, and then
my actual birthday is this coming Saturday!
Of course a celebration calls for lots of drinking and
eating, and that is exactly what I did! This week I will be going to the gym
for at least 40-50 minutes a day so that I feel great for the weekend to come!
If you had a weekend like me that contained alcohol and some
good food, then you should probably stick to my workout routine for this week
so that you will feel confident in a bathing suit this weekend.
I will be splitting up cardio and weight lifting. Today I am
going to do about 20-30 minutes of cardio (to work off all of the crap I fed my
body this past weekend), and about 20 minutes of weights. I am going to focus
on arms today. Tomorrow I will do some light cardio for about 15-20 minutes
(bike or elliptical), and then focus on butt and legs. Wednesday I am just going
to focus on arms and abs. Thursday I will see if I deserve some time off, and Friday
I will do some early morning cardio, and then focus on different parts of my body
that I would like to target for the weekend to come.
I am also meal prepping my lunches for the short week. Today and tomorrow I have my "Adult Lunchables", for Wednesday and Thursday I will have a nice salad with some cucumbers, peppers, carrots, turkey, with apple cider vinegar dressing.
If you are at a good weight, and you just want to maintain
it, then some light cardio will do the trick. Spend more of your time weight
lifting so that you look more toned and won’t start losing your muscle due to
HIIT cardio.
Be sure to drink responsibly this weekend and don’t worry
about all of the pizza and burgers you’re going to be eating ;)
