Hiccup

April 10, 2014 by Julie 30 Comments

This morning began with an unexpected little hiccup. Ryan’s car wouldn’t start, so I had to drop him off at work a little after 7 a.m.

Since he works on the opposite side of town, I decided to pack up my computer and clothes for the day and stay on that side of town rather than come home to avoid lots of backtracking. I quickly assembled a grab-n-go breakfast to eat in the car during the 25-minute commute to Ryan’s work.

Part one: Greek yogurt topped with dried mango and dark cocoa almonds

Part two: A KIND bar

The KIND bar arrived in my latest Birchbox yesterday. I’ve received tea in a Birchbox in the past, but this was the first food sample I’ve received in my monthly beauty box. Kind of random for a beauty box, but it was tasty, so I’ll take it!

Workout

After I dropped Ryan off, I initially planned to work for an hour or so at a local coffee shop before my workout, but I felt oddly energetic, so I went to the gym to workout before grabbing a latte at a nearby coffee shop.

Today’s workout was very similar to the Shoulder Shredder workout I shared on Tuesday but it focused on my biceps instead.

Directions for this workout are the same as the directions for the Shoulder Shredder workout: Complete each circuit four times before moving onto the next. Move from one exercise to the next within each circuit without rest. Catch your breath at the very end of each circuit.

After my workout, I took my sweaty self to Cup O’ the Irish, one of my favorite local coffee shops, to order a vanilla almond milk latte and type up this blog post before it’s time for me to drive back to the gym to teach.

Catch ya after lunch!
