Week 2 of the Rocktober Challenge is complete for me.  The challenge is from Tuesday to the following Monday.  I got my 3 workouts in on last Tuesday, Thursday and then on Saturday.  Week 2 was a little more difficult than week 1.  A lot of the moves were similar but had some add on’s to make them more challenging.  Like the lunges had a pulse to them and the push ups were done with an extended arm.  The tricep dips were also done on one leg.  Each exercise is performed for a minute then you rest for a few seconds and move on.   There are a total of 7 exercises that you repeat for 3 to 5 rounds.  Let me tell you – I am pretty much done after 3 rounds.  I notice some people in the facebook challenge group are doing 4 or 5 rounds but 3 is good for me!

Below are a few photos from this past weeks workouts:

I didn’t have time to do photos for the 3rd day.  Saturday was a busy day around here.

Also, I am still trying to eat as clean as possible and I am now trying to drink a totally green drink-smoothie every day – usually around lunch time or early afternoon.  I am using the recipe from The Beauty Detox Foods book by Kimberly Snyder that I recently checked out from the library.   I will not lie and tell you I love the green drink-smoothie but it is a real energy boost for my day and makes me feel really healthy after drinking it.  It is not horrible just an acquired taste sort of thing.  I am thinking the more you drink them the more you grow to like them -eventually.

Well tomorrow we get a new round of the exercises for week 3 – I am excited to see what is in store but also a little nervous!  I will update you next week on the workouts.

Have a great day!
