Day 5 of 21 Day Challenge: Fun Times Limerick

March 28, 2014 3 min read

Today I actually have to go to work (for 4 hours), so I’ve been trying to get all my healthiness in order before I have to leave. Also, I’m sorry that my posts are so uninteresting. I feel really bad for boring any of those faithful followers who read about my challenge progress everyday. I hope that the sum of my blogs doesn’t amount to “I ate eggs, did the work out, it was hard, the end.” Well, I’m not sure if limericks are “interesting” but since that’s what my brain decided to create instead of sleeping last night, here’s what I came up with, dedicated to my celiac friends: There once was a girl who ate bread, But her bowel movements filled her with dread. Instead of her bloating, She soon started gloating, By using rice flour for baking instead! I really don’t understand my mind sometimes. Sorry. WORKOUT: Video used: Equipment needed:

Workout breakdown:

4 exercises, 3x through

50 seconds work – 10 seconds rest

1) Out push + diamond push ups

2) Get up, push-up + row

3) L+R alternate push-ups + row

4) 5x push-ups + 5x reverse push-ups

Modifications:

used free weights instead of kettlebells
definitely had to go to my knees for the 2^nd and 3^rd round of the out/diamond push-ups. Although if I am feeling pretty burnt out, since there’s 3 rounds of exercises, I went to my knees for almost all the push ups in the 2^nd round and tried going all out for the 3^rd round.
Usually I can just use the backs of two chairs as my equalizer, but there was no way I was trusting them to not crash on top of me for the reverse push-ups, so I used a piano bench for the elevated push ups, then sit ups with weights instead of reverse push-ups.
I sort of missed my cardio, so I jogged in place for a bit after the workout (although I think being on my feet for 4 hours straight at work helped too)

FOOD: For breakfast I had one two of my oatmeal banana morning muffins and tea. Lunch was leftover stir-fry, boring, but good. For dinner I wanted something that I could take with me to work because it would be an hour long drive there, and I knew that I would get hungry if I didn’t eat right before the show, so I packed a giant salad with sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and walnuts, with a little olive oil and balsamic vinaigrette drizzled on top. I also brought the cookie dough bites along with me as well as my garlic kale chips to work, and they were DECIMATED. So save to say I’ll add those to my baking repertoire. THOUGHTS:

I eat a lot of leftovers, mainly because I cook too much food/I have a small appetite (except for when it comes to burritos) so I found this cool life hack that if you want your leftovers to heat up evenly in the microwave just make a hole in the middle of the food.
There were some dance routines in the show and this one number featured some especially fit ladies, and I realized, I could do those dance moves, probably, if I was shown how anyway. ERGO, I could be a fit bit.

Shipping & Delivery

Due to COVID-19, shipping systems the world over are experiencing abnormal delays. There is an enormous demand on postal and delivery services as online shopping has skyrocketed, due to store closures and stay-at-home mandates. This is an unprecedented situation, and we are working around the clock to fulfill your orders as quickly as possible. To be clear, we are filling orders in 4-6 days, and we are shipping immediately after that. Once shipped, our shipping partner, UPS, will get your order out to you as quickly as possible. Thanks for your support and understanding.

Are you in Canada? Specifically, are you outside of a metropolitan centre? We need to alert you to a disruption in shipping due to COVID-19. Our preferred shipping provider, UPS, has informed us that they cannot guarantee express shipping for many locations. We have also seen that packages delivered to Toronto, Ottawa, Vancouver, etc, are not waylaid, but packages delivered to areas just outside of these cities are being held in transit for days or even weeks. UPS has discontinued their guarantee of 1-4 day delivery, which you can read more about here. Therefore, we can guarantee early fulfillment but not early delivery of our goods from our warehouse to your door at this time.

We want you to start your fitness journey with us as quickly as possible, that’s why we send every package to the USA & Canada via expedited or standard shipping (whichever is faster) with our partners at UPS. Once your order has been processed successfully we try to have your shipment prepared within 4-6 business days, and it typically takes 2-4 days to get to you once it leaves our warehouse.

We currently DO NOT SHIP to locations outside of the US and Canada. We DO NOT ship to a P.O. Box number.

We ship all of our physical products with UPS, from our warehouse location in Kingston, Ontario, Canada. Sometimes delivery can be delayed by circumstances out of our control, like postal & custom delays, back-ordered products or incorrectly entered shipping addresses. If there is a delay at Customs, a representative of UPS may contact you to provide your identification in order to receive your package. Please do this ASAP: Customers will be responsible for any additional shipping fees for failure to provide the required information to release a shipment.

Make sure when checking out and paying for your order that all of your information entered is correct! If you notice a mistake in your address, please try to contact us before your order is processed for shipping to avoid any missed shipments or delays. As soon as we process your order for shipping, you will receive a shipping confirmation email that contains your UPS tracking number. You can head on over to the UPS Website to see where your products are. Note: tracking information may take 1-2 business days to be updated in the UPS system

If you are not home when your package is delivered, BodyRock is NOT responsible if it is stolen. Please contact us if this happens to you and we will provide you with all the information needed to take the next steps.
