First workout since holiday hiatus

[Moriartea_time]

Hello everyone!

 

Just wanted to share my first woot moment. I started working out late last year, doing cardio about 5 times a week, and alternating days with the beginners body weight workout circuit, doing what I could. I went on hiatus around Thanksgiving, and before I knew it, December rolled around and my workout space was taken up by wrapping paper and containers for holiday decorations. 

 

Now, midway through January, I finally went enough is enough. Did a 10 minute elliptical warm-up, as much of the body weight workout as I could (20 squats, about 6 push-ups from the knees, maybe 10 lunges total [these and pushups are the hardest for me], 10 DB rows per arm, and 15 sec plank) and cooled down with yoga for hips, hamstrings, and lower back (which also made me realize I'm quite inflexible as well as weak in the leg muscles).

 

My legs feel wobbly, but I feel better overall.

 

Woot!

Good deal. I read a book several years ago and according to the author, showing up is the first step to success.

Awesome! A lot of people wouldn't go back to it if they fell off the wagon early on. But nope - you got right back to it! Keep going! I hope to see many more woots to come.

Yay, wobbly legs! Best feeling ever. Congratulations on getting back at it (and for getting started at the roughest time of year). I'm not sure how to properly follow a profile feed in, like, normal-time, but looking back on yours it looks like things are going AWESOME.

Thank you! =D Yes, I think things are going awesome. Starting to slowly lose weight, so, something's working.
