There are a lot of w’s in my post title huh? Apparently I’m in the mood for a good alliteration this evening!
Today I had a little “me” time and got a massage and a manicure. Thanks to Groupon, my hour-long deep tissue massage was only $25…how can you not love that right?!
Since I knew I wouldn’t feel like working out or have time to after my couple hours of pampering, I planned on doing a workout first thing in the morning so I could still fit exercise time in for the day. I rolled out of bed this morning and first did my favorite YouTube AM yoga video:
I’ve followed this video a bunch of times, and I always feel so stretched out and ready for the day after it!
Harley moved her blanket to be right on top of my yoga mat, and then she proceeded to just curl up and stare at me for my entire yoga session. Just the usual shenanigans in my house!
After yoga, I jumped around and did the workout below. It took me 20 minutes to complete, and according to my heart rate monitor, I burned 150 calories.
Since it has been so chilly in the Bay Area lately, I’ve really been enjoying sweating during my workouts and getting my body warmed up – hence the workout title. Exercising has felt even better than usual, and my workouts have been rocking lately!
Question: What time of the day do you usually exercise?

Harley is so adorable! I love YouTube yoga. I do Tara Stiles’videos a lot. I try to workout in the morning but sometimes I end up working out at night (like right now when it is dark and freezing in the am!). Sometimes I’ll even split my workouts into am/pm sessions.

Oooh, I’ll have to check her videos out! Thanks for the recommendation.

It’s been SO cold lately I can’t believe it. Luckily it’s warming up, I even see a little sun peaking out my window this morning. 🙂
Whenever I exercise, I prefer it to be right when I wake up or else I will get lazy from eating all day.

Of course I moved to this area the year that we have record breaking cold temperatures!
Haha, your comment made me laugh… even though you’re serious. Lucky fast metabolism!
