So hard to believe it is already September. Life has been so strange since March it doesn’t feel like we should be to the Fall yet?

So, we did this same workout this summer, July 1st when we were in St. Louis. We got up at 4:30 a.m. to join the 5:30 a.m. class. I did this workout with a set of 10 lb db so I guess I know I have definitely improved as today was done with a 15lb set of dumbbells.

Also, in July I only did 40 toe touch crunches and today I did 50. I stopped when every one else was done.

Good work out and now shower and to school 🙂
