Strategy for the Week

I'm still a little bit sick. Luckily, I haven't gotten as sick as my husband had. He's almost over his, so his lasted about a week. I hope that by staying a bit active (but not pushing too much) and by having good nutrition, that I will get over this quickly.

To that end, I'm going to mix things up a bit for this week, to make it lighter exercise-wise. I can think of this as a recovery week. Athletes do that every so often to ensure full muscle recovery. And, I think my body could use that anyway, especially with my lower body muscles.

Sunday: Upper Body Weights
Monday: Light Lower Body Weights/Heavy Abdominal
Tuesday: Yoga and Ice Skating
Wednesday: Maybe try Zumba class at work or Simply Light Cardio
Thursday: Trapeze
Friday: Rest
Saturday: High Intensity Cardio (if well) and Ice Skating

So, I've moved my 2nd weight session to Monday, replacing a heavy cardio day. That makes Tuesday much lighter. Also, Wednesday will remain a light cardio day. I'm hoping that this will leave me at full strength for trapeze class.
