Kickboxing Tuesday

Along with training for a half marathon, it's always good to cross train.  I lift weights and use the machines at the gym but my favorite cross training is kickboxing. I usually go on Thursdays, but because of prior engagements this week I went on Tuesday.  I kick box at a karate studio a few miles from my house.  It's a great cardio workout and who doesn't love hitting a bag for fun? 

Pink polka dot shorts make every workout a lot of fun!  Before I left the house I ate a pre workout snack, yogurt and an orange.  You don't want to eat anything too heavy because there's a lot of running around.  Also, eating an orange before you workout can help reduce muscle pain afterwards.  When I got home I made a protein shake to add the vitamins and nutrients can be sent to my muscles to get lean.  

Now it's your turn!
