Curry chicken salad is yummy! Recipe for the curry mayo part: 1 cup mayo, 3 tablespoons ketchup, 3 tablespoons curry powder, dash of Worchester sauce, some onion flakes. I like to add crushed red pepper too, because I like the flavor and my curry powder isn't spicy enough for me.
So, the gym I work out at is on the University of Denver campus. It has its ups and downs. Ups: Great equipment, and with my boyfriend a student there, we get a super discounted rate. Downs: DU is a huge fraternity/sorority campus and its always crowded. Yesterday, amongst the meatheads grunting loudly and discussing which girls they would nail (yes those were their words), I found considerate guy. He was actually willing to give up his weights for me--if only they had been heavy enough. It was a refreshing change though.
Anyway here's how the rest of the workout went:
B5
Deadlifts: 3 sets of 10 @75 lbs-next time I'm going to up the weight here
Dumb Bell Shoulder Press: 3 sets of 10 @ 35 lbs (17.5 each hand)-also need to go up in weight next time
Wide Grip Lat Pull Down: 3 sets of 10 @ 62.5 lbs-still struggle with that last rep, so this is a good weight
Lunge: 3 sets of 10 @ 30 lbs-might try the bar next time, depending on whether or not it's available.
Swill Ball Crunch: 1 set of 10 (I forgot to increase to 12), 1 set of 12, 1 set of 14 (to make up for the first set) overhead with 10 lbs.
Food yesterday:
whole wheat english muffin with 2 tablespoons natural peanut butter
1 small orange
1/4 nut mix
curry chicken salad on whole wheat tortilla
veggie sticks
zone bar
whole wheat pasta with meat sauce--more meat and sauce than pasta
luna bar
post workout shake
Much better on the calories yesterday than Wednesday. I could have done without the pasta, but my bf cooked dinner before I got there, and that's all he ever makes. At least I convinced him to switch to the wheat pasta...
This morning, did HIIT. Rather than timing everything out, I had to just go with sprint on the sidewalks that were cleared and walk on the snow packed ones. I'm still pretty pleased with the HIIT--it really perks me up in the morning! So much that I rarely need coffee or tea anymore. That's pretty exciting!
I think I'll probably switch things up this weekend and do my workout Saturday instead of Sunday and then snowboard Sunday and Monday. We've got a pretty good amount of snow over the last week, and there's a bit more to come Sunday.
