21 Day Fix: Dirty 30

I wasn't sure what to expect with the 21 Day Fix "Dirty 30" workout, aside from the program description which explains that it's 4 rounds, so 8 workouts... I didn't know if it would be cardio, strength, or what. What I did know is that I was still sore from yesterday when I woke up this morning. So of course I did what most people do and procrastinated the workout. I made myself do it though, and I'm so glad I did... even though I'm more sore now than I was before I did the Dirty 30.

This workout focuses primarily on strength. There are some moves from some of the previous workouts we've already covered, and some new ones. Either way, it's another butt kicking from Autumn. I'm afraid of what I may feel like tomorrow morning but I love feeling that soreness because I know it's working, which is all the excitement and motivation I need to keep pushing myself harder.

I bought new weights online last night --- I was out looking for 7lbs which are apparently hard to come by but I did find them on Amazon so I look forward to getting those so I can step up my heavier weights to the 7lbs and use the 5lbs for my lighter ones. I have no doubt this will make me even more sore --- YES!  Change is happening!! The challenge group I'm participating in with my Beachbody Coach begins this week so I should be starting the eating plan portion of this soon and can share more about that once it's underway. It intimidates me because it will take planning and dedication (not to mention self control), but it basically focuses on a similar caloric intake that I'm currently operating on... just with no processed foods. I can do this! (I hope!)
