I feel like I deserve some sort of badge that looks like this:
After that fiasco, I realized there are no lids for the cups, so I improvised:
So I made myself one :)
Seriously though, spin class was AWESOME! I already can't wait to go back next week. Sure, I had no idea what zone I was in half the time, but it was a great workout! The best part is, I actually made it through the whole 45 minutes! I probably wouldn't have made it through Zone 4 without this song, though:
Already downloaded on iTunes. Thanks for the inspiration, Kelly!
Now let's talk a little bit about my day before spin class.
I wanted to make my protein smoothie before we went to the gym, since we had to run a few errands afterwards and I didn't want to be tempted to eat at Taco Bell (like Ben did). I got out the Magic Bullet and all my supplies. I was going to make it one of the portable cups, but then all the ingredients didn't fit in it, so I transferred them all to the blender attachment:
Epic smoothie fail. |
I kind of forgot to connect the bottom to the blender before I poured the ingredients in, so when I picked it up to put on the Bullet, my ingredients went all over the counter. I hope I cleaned my counter recently, because as you can see, I just swept them all back into the blender using my hand.
After that fiasco, I realized there are no lids for the cups, so I improvised:
I know, I know- black is boring. But it also matches EVERYTHING! |
Oh yeah, and our word of the day is "meld":
noun
2. a blend.
1. mix, fuse, combine, consolidate.
Ben used it today in reference to two lanes converging, and I made fun of him for using what I thought was clearly a made up word.
I should know by now that he's always right.
Do you have any specific songs/artists that get you pumped for working out?
What are your favorite smoothie ingredients?
Do you own a Magic Bullet?
Give me jock jams and I could go all day :)
