Well, I have only a few classes this year... so I'm trying to make the best of my free time. I guess it's one of the perks of being a student...  1h yesterday morning... and 1.5h in the afternoon *Alexa* 35/400 Chynna 30/500 clogger 80/530 Fayeza 0/240 Georgiana 705/2880 gman 15/400 candyattitude 0/500 liv 230/750

Two days of yoga with Leah in a row. I must be crazy. That woman makes you hold poses for ever. I also did abs *Alexa* 35/400 Chynna 30/500 clogger 80/530 Fayeza 0/240 Georgiana 795/2880 gman 15/400 candyattitude 0/500 liv 310/750

This was supposed to be a rest day, but I finished my homework faster than I planned, so took advantage of the extra time and did 1.5h this morning... and another 45 min in the afternoon. *Alexa* 35/400 Chynna 30/500 clogger 80/530 Fayeza 0/240 Georgiana 930/2880 gman 15/400 candyattitude 0/500 liv 310/750

Between lifting and abs I added another 55 minutes. This morning I started a free weight lifting routine rather than the circuit that I did for 6 weeks. I'm really looking forward to the challenge! *Alexa* 35/400 Chynna 30/500 clogger 135/530 Fayeza 0/240 Georgiana 930/2880 gman 15/400 candyattitude 0/500 liv 310/750

Free weights sure beats circuit. Much harder to do. And it is always good to mix things up or else those muscles get too comfortable. I did abs as well today. I am getting a tad stronger. Still struggle with those bicycles though. *Alexa* 35/400 Chynna 30/500 clogger 135/530 Fayeza 0/240 Georgiana 930/2880 gman 15/400 candyattitude 0/500 liv 340/750
