Kayla Itsines Round 2 – Week 4

October 19, 2014

I cannot believe it has already been a month since I jumped back onto the Kayla Itsines train! Although the last two weekends have seen me indulging a bit much, I can see that my arms and core are much tighter, and that my clothes are fitting better. I decided not to weigh myself because it is coming up to be ‘that time’ of the month and because I had more food than I should’ve this weekend. Oops! I do not want to discourage myself so I will weigh myself again in a few weeks and focus on the physical changes more. I will have to be more active in ensuring that I do not indulge every weekend. Every few weekends sure, but I want to give my all during my Kayla Itsines challenge.

The rest of the week food-wise was fine though. I am obsessed with having brown rice in my salads as it makes them much heartier and gives a great texture. I met up briefly with a good friend of mine this morning and we got some green smoothies! Needless to say, I made a custom smoothie and while it was very healthy, the taste was not so fun. I don’t know why the photo is so small! If you go to my Facebook page, you can see a bigger sized version of the photo 🙂

Fitness wise, I feel SO much stronger! My big weakness for this week was previously the push ups with mountain climbers, and although I am still not 100% at them, I was able to do much more in a row than I could two weeks ago. Ahh, progress is so satisfying! I had the most ridiculous experience at the gym on Friday by the way guys. I normally always workout in the group exercise room at the gym because it tends to be less full and there is more space to workout. There was thing young guy (guessing 14 or 15) who I kid you not, was facetiming his girlfriend. He kept doing a few burpees every couple of minutes and saying ‘I love you’ constantly too. I tell you, I was SO frustrated!! Plus I forgot my headphones so I could hardly drown the guy out. Ugh. Sorry for the tangent, just had to share with you. Who comes to the gym to Facetime people and do 30 burpees in the space of 20 minutes? Thank goodness I look like such a bad ass doing my Kayla Itsines workouts (might be exaggerating heehee). Especially with my new ASICS 😀

That’s all from me! I have to get back to doing work and studying, sigh. Who else here is a graduate student? Can we complain together please?!

    Can I have your legs, lol? And yeah, seriously, who facetimes at the gym? I once saw someone facetiming while driving! Maybe he thought he looked pretty hot doing his burpees, haha.

      Haha, oh you flatter me, Sarah 🙂 Facetiming whilst driving?! Wow, that is a new one … how incredibly bizarre and dangerous.
      And YES, I think that is exactly it. He probably thought his girlfriend would find him ever more attractive, ugh. Silly guy.

    I’ve seen Kayla Itsines all over Instagram! I’m seriously considering trying it out….looking forward to reading about your experience with the program! And gym mishaps (aka why 14 year olds shouldn’t be allowed in the gym sans parents 🙂 ).

      You should definitely try it, Brittney! I love the style of the workouts and the fact that they change so frequently. Certainly has my seal of approval.
      Oh gosh, yes!!! I saw his mother pick him up afterwards too lol, was incredibly tempted to say something 😛

      Thanks for dropping by. So nice to meet another Bay Area blogger 🙂
