Turbofire Fire 45

Status Before:
Fire 45 is my favorite of all the Turbofire workouts. I'm adding Core 20 after because I missed it over the weekend. Today I'm feeling tired from lack of sleep last night as usual. I drank some E&E beforehand and I'm not having the R&R during this time. We had a busy weekend. My husband's grandfather was in town to meet the baby and Saturday was a going away party for a cousin, yesterday was our yearly family reunion which lasts all day at our farm, so we were outside the whole time and finally made it home in the evening.

Results During:
Well, I ended up not starting when I wanted, so 10 minutes into it I was ready to stop because I was distracted of all the other things I could've been doing at this time of the day (afternoon). After that I kept going, but didn't feel I was putting forth much effort and I felt as though I was just following the moves like I was first learning them. During the first HIIT I just stopped and walked away. I was now feeling so out of shape along with the distractions that were already on my mind. Apparently I waited too long after drinking the E&E for it to work and I wasn't focused at all or feeling any energy. About halfway through I thought about quitting because I like working out in the mornings so much better, but I decided to change my attitude. I did the next two HIITS (one minute of high intensity) and I couldn't touch the floor with my hands. I didn't finish the workout after this. My mind was not in it and that is very important. At least I tried. I always tell people, give it at least five minutes. If you still don't feel like working out then it's just not there for you. Yep, even I have these days--to those of you who know me well. I'm not sure if it was because it's Monday and the weekend was long and I didn't do it in the morning or what. There should be no excuse to not work out. I made the time, I just wasn't in the right mind set for it.

Goals For Next Time:
Workout in the morning! Stop putting it off. I'm back to work next week and might have to workout in the afternoon or evening until I get used to getting up early after lack of sleep from the baby, but this week I can focus on the mornings again. This will still be my favorite workout because of the HIITs, so I intend on mostly just doing the whole workout and not quitting!
