What's for Dinner?: A Good Saturday

Yesterday was a work day - 11-3:30, but it's still Saturday and on Saturdays, I wake up earlier than normal. I woke up at 6:15 before the sun and headed to boot camp. Thankfully, the sun came up as I pulled up to the gym.

I also never have enough time to think about if I'll go because it's so early.

I love boot camp especially with this trainer. I've mentioned it before but Nathan actually has a plan and it involves variety. I never know what I'm going to get.

The workout focused on legs, my favorite!

My new Reebok Crossfit Nanos are fantastic for lifting, but the toe was a little stiff for burpees. :/ I struggled to get to 17 burpees in 50 seconds. :( Forward lunges were also a bit tougher too.

Work was quick. We had a huge sale so tons of customers came and made my shift go by quick.

Afterwards, I treated myself to some Only 8 brand frozen yogurt.

I snuck in a little nap before dinner, studying, and some TV time before bed.

Have you tried any GNC products? This is my first try and I'm loving it. This flavor got great reviews. P.S. Our GNC stores here are kind of small and sketchy.
Have you tried a boot camp class? They're my favorite way to get in cardio and strength. I try to go every other week. The only class I go to every week is TurboKick for my big boost of cardio and of course, yoga.
