Day 26 of 63: Pure Cardio and Cardio Abs

Calories Burned: 550
Workout Time: 55 minutes

I almost did not work out today. I actually got home around 9pm after going out for Happy Hours for a couple of hours. Work was also busy so I was totally drained by the time I got home. In addition to that, I had a drink and was starting to have a mild headache. To make things worse, I was hungry as well. 

In general, I would not recommend having alcohol on workout days unless you have enough time to let it out of your system before working out. I also do not recommend going hungry but I know it is sometimes hard to plan these things. But do try to eat at snack least 1-2 hours before working out.

Even though I was not at my best when I got home, I was really obsessed with getting today's workout. I did not want to cheat myself so I forced it upon me and I am glad I did. The workout was good, I was sweating, my heart rate was within range between 65% and 85% of my maximum heart rate.

I also checked my weight and I am back at 167 lbs. Remember, I went up to 170 at one point? Well, now that I have re-adjusted my diet, I am back to normal but I am not sure I have lost any additional fat :S.

Almost done with phase 1. wohooo!!
