Weekly Workouts & Meal Plan

How are you? Hopefully you’re having a good weekend. My heart goes out to all those impacted by this terrible tragedy in Connecticut. Occurrences like this will always boggle my mind….How could someone do such a thing?

On a much lighter note, I used to share my weekly meal and workout plan, but got out of habit. I enjoy seeing others post this information because it always gives me great ideas, so I figured I’d try to start doing it again.

Weekly Workouts (note: these are on the heavy side right now because we have a few injured instructors and one that just gave birth so I am subbing a good chunk):

  • Friday: Taught Body Attack
  • Saturday: Taught Body Step
  • Sunday: Rest
  • Monday: Teach Body Step
  • Tuesday: Teach Body Attack
  • Wednesday: Teach Pump
  • Thursday: Run

Meal Plan:

  • Friday: Grilled chicken salads (Josh and I are sort of on a salad kick- favorite add ins are cheese, mini cucumbers & avocado)
  • Saturday: Out! Not sure where yet
  • Sunday: Stuffed shells & salad
  • Monday: Leftover shells
  • Tuesday: Tomato soup & grilled cheese
  • Wednesday: Black bean burgers & pineapple rice
  • Thursday: Breakfast for dinner (omelets or pancakes)

What are you eating this week? Any fun workouts planned?

Today has been a really fun day so far. Kaylin woke up early and sat on/pushed around her new bike from impatient Santa who brought it to her early:

Then we headed to the gym where I taught step. I brought Kaylin in the room early to help me setup and she decided to try it out herself:

Rest of the day is pretty open (Kaylin and I are hoping to take Josh on a surprise mini trip). What are you up to?
