Take advantage of what you have...
This past weekend the Lady Knights took a trip to Frankfort, Kentucky for a softball tournament and then we headed up to Cincinnati for a Reds game and on to the Great Wolf Lodge in Mason for a couple of days of fun and relaxation. But I needed to get in at least one good workout.
The Great Wolf Lodge had a decent fitness center but no free weights. So, I took advantage of the machine equipment and some good old fashioned jumping jacks to get a sweat going. Then I knocked out some pushups before hitting the treadmill for twenty minutes at a seven percent incline.
One thing I've noticed from my reading is that running on an incline burns more calories that running on flat ground, so anytime you have an option, opt for some incline. I've noticed that my legs get a greater workout too!
After my workout I took a nice hot shower and then spent the next three hours learning how to play MagiQuest from some seven and eight year old kids!
Remember, you can get in a good workout no matter where you are or what you have to work with as long as you are motivated to get it done! Keep working hard and remember to set your goals and work hard and smart to achieve them!
