Please, don’t kill me guys, recently I’ve become obsessed with infographics. The reason being is that I am a visual person, and I find that just by looking at an image I can learn and absorb much more than by reading the same thing as a plain text. I hope you don’t mind, and if you do, definitely let me know!!! *You’re the best!*
Recently I’ve been paying a lot of attention to the labels of products that I am buying. However, at the same time, I know that they can be misguiding. And to top it all off, I have no clue what majority of the ingredients even mean. Well, I definitely try to avoid those products, but still! So I wanted to look more into it and see if there is anything new that I could find out for myself. And as a result I came across this.
After reading through it, I am really concerned about how much more I don’t know! It’s quite disturbing! What do you think?
Workout of the Day
Actually, today was supposed to be my rest day. However, my husband and I made some plans with our friends to go up north in the mountains for the weekend. Since we’ll be driving there right after work, the chances of me working out on Friday are extremely low, and on Saturday – well, it really depends on weather, but I highly doubt that I’ll be able to get a nice run in. Therefore, I decided to something different today and combine 2 workouts from my 12-week training schedule: Medusa’s Challenge & Super Spartan Trail Run.
Warm up well.
Perform 1 minute of each exercise, with 10 seconds of rest in between:
- push-ups
- curl-ups
- inverted pull-ups
- plank
- squat jumps
- jump rope
Repeat entire sequence 3 times. * I promise, I will attempt to! However, please, don’t be mad at me if I do it only 2. Haha!*
Steady state 4 miles run: run in zone 2 and the low end of zone 3.
What are the things that you look for and paying attention to when grocery shopping? How important is the amount of calories when you are choosing between different brands?
