Wednesday Wellness: My Week of Workouts

It has been a few weeks since I had a Wednesday Wellness post. Today I am going to give a little peek at my weekly workouts. I did a post like this back in February and June, but my February life and June life is very different from my October life, so I decided to give you a peek into my workouts from October 5-11th. I have links to my youtube workouts too! 


Saturday, October 5


4.4 mile run


Saturday means a run day! It was so beautiful out this morning. Cooler temps make running easier. 


Sunday, October 6


1.04 mile morning walk

1.00 mile afternoon walk


Sunday is my “rest day.” I try to get a couple walks in on these days. My afternoon walk was at the ball fields while Baker warmed up. I decided to just walk around the ballpark until game time.


Monday, October 7


30 min. Upper Body Strength Workout


This was Sydney Cummings “30 Minute Upper Body No Repeats Workout.


Tuesday, October 8


30 min. Lower Body Strength Workout

1.05 mile Walk

0.75 mile Walk


Similar to yesterday’s, I did another Sydney workout that was a No Repeat Workout. These no repeat workouts go by so fast! I also snuck in some walks at lunch and after school while the kids were playing outside, I did a couple down and back in the cul de sac.


Wednesday, October 9


3.13 mile Run

1.55 mile Walk


Wednesdays are my other day to run. I also got a walk in with Ruby, as this was a day off for me.


Thursday, October 10


Upper Body Strength Workout

2.00 mile Walk


Back to upper body, I did Sydney’s 30 Minute Upper Body Strength Ladder. It was fantastic! I also did a speed walk after dropping the kids off. I am trying to up my walking speed. I did this walk in about 30 minutes, so that would be 15 min/mile pace. It was very intense.



Friday, October 11


30 min. Lower Body Functional Strength Training


I was feeling very tired this day, so I opted to listen to my body and just do a workout with glute bands from Sydney Cummings. It was super effective despite not lifting heavy weights.





That, my friends, is a week of workouts for me. I do strength training 4x times a week and I run 2x times a week. And one rest day that falls on Sunday. I try to keep it simple!
