“I don’t like them Pokemon things”
Hey everyone! How are ya?? I loved reading about your grocery staples– I saw some new items in there that I’m gonna be on the lookout for 😉
This afternoon, I decided to whip up some hummus using the standard recipe:
And made a sandwich to munch after spin while driving to my training appointment:
That baby had sprouted sourdough bread, homemade hummus, bell pepper and romaine. It took everything in my power to put it in the fridge and save it for later 😀
After reading poolside for an hour – I joked on twitter that the only thing I worked on today was my tan – I met Jeni at the gym for some shoulders, chest and triceps.
Here’s what we did:
Warm up | Elliptical | Cross country 1 program, level 5, 5 minutes |
Unilateral shoulder press | 5 lbs each | 3 sets of 12 |
Stability ball push-ups | Body weight | 3 sets of 12 |
V-rope tricep press | 40 lbs | 3 sets of 12 |
Seated chest press | 35 lbs | 3 sets of 10 |
Assisted dip | 95 lbs | 3 sets of 10 |
Compound 30s | 5 lbs each | 3 sets of 12 |
Frog crunches | Body weight | 3 sets of 12 |
When I got home, I made a quick smoothie of brown rice protein, hemp milk, sea salt, Stevia, cinnamon and vanilla:
Grabbed my teaching stuff, and drove to the base gym to take yoga and teach spin.
Yoga was beauuuuutiful. I seriously love taking other instructor’s classes and even though I really wanted to spend the entire class in child’s pose, I got some serious stretching in.
Spin was a blasty as usual and my training appointment went really well—I had the funny quotes lady who always cracks me up.
Today, I made her do push-ups using the mini Fitballs (which look like spiky mini Bosu balls) flipped over. After 3 incredible difficult sets of push-ups, she was like, “I don’t like them Pokemon things” [referring to the Fitballs]. She said they looked like something outta Pokemon, and didn’t like them even more because they made push-ups just a little harder 😉
Another thing: she brought me a gift! A little food processor that she uses to make nut butters at home – I had told her about my homemade nut butter abomination. So I’m way excited to try it out!
Well I’m off to hang out with the pilot and put a breakfast cookie in the fridge for tomorrow 😀
Have a wonderful night!!
xoxo,
Gina
I've never seen those before! The pokemon reference is hilarious! Your sammy looks yum. 🙂
I never knew what those funny looking balls were for!! I love the quotes you share with us…tooo funny!
Yummy sandwich, anything with hummus is delish in my eyes:D
I had a hummus sandwich for lunch, too! I bought the TJ's hummus sampler and I am quickly eating my way through it…embarrassingly quickly…
Hook me up with one of those sandwiches, please! Hummus and veggies on whole wheat is my favorite.
Mmm Homemade hummus!! Sounds amazing! I just checked out your breakfast cookie recipe too!! I think I might go make one right now!!
the sammie looks amazing!
Homemade hummus… yum!
I have a breakfast cookie waiting for me at work tomorrow! 🙂 I meant to have it today, but I'm an airhead and forgot about it.
that was so nice of her to get you a little gift!!! She sounds funny 😉 And that hummus sammy looks ammmazing!
That is too funny!
I just made some hummus too! 😀
Where do you find sprouted sour dough? Sour dough and rye used to be my very favorite breads.
hahaha…pokemon. some people say the darndest things!
That sandwich sounds devine. I probably would have ended up taking a sneak sample too! 🙂
Hope you have a wonderul day beautiful girl!
Owww homemade nut butter! This client is a keeper 🙂 Sounds like a nice day. Your homemade hummus looks VERY yummy. I love making my own vs going store bought, its nice to be able to control all the ingredients 🙂
Aww that was sweet of your client to bring you a present! That sandwich looks super delicious, by the way:)
Sprouted sourdough? Um, yum! That sandwich looks incredible!
Child's pose is the best yoga pose known to man – hands down my favorite 🙂
That sammach looks delish! Im having a similar sandwhich today for lunch – i cant wait hehe!
that sammie looks so good…i love hummus!!
and how sweet of your client to give you a food processor!
lol- You sounded like my roommate when you joked that all you did yesterday was work on your tan. I don't know how you guys can lay out for long in the hot GA sun! I last for a few hours, max… but then again, I have a fair complexion and you guys don't!
I never knew what the spiky balls (twss) were for– maybe I'll try that out after I finally figure out the bosu!
Homemade hummus? Yes please!
