Day 6 - Trainer workout #2

We did mostly upper body, again, which I prefer to legs. I'm not really a fan of working out the legs for some reason - guess I care a lot more about how my upper body looks than my legs. They're naturally beautiful legs, anyway. :)
A 60 minute workout is really pushing it for me, cardio-wise. If I was starting this program all over again, I would definitely work my cardio up to at least 45min to an hour before I started a training program. As it is, I'm so exhausted by the end, I'm having trouble standing up, never mind standing up on a ball balancing free weights. Cardio is coming, though. We're bumping the cardio up to 40 minutes, maybe 45 if i can do it. Tomorrow morning, 6:30am!
Food was decent today. Breakfast was a little light - I was running late, and I forgot to bring fruit to the office with me, so I had to make do on fiber & protein bars. Lunch was good. I've been craving subway for some reason. I had a 12in oven-roasted chicken on whole wheat bread, with pepperjack and honey mustard and lots of jalapenos. Grabbed a protein bar about an hour before the workout, took two creatine tablets 1/2 hour before the workout with some apple juice, and then got home and made myself a beautiful steak, baked potato, & steamed spinach & garlic. Also, pretty sure I hit my ten glasses of water today. Two at home in the morning, bottle of water & three refills, one before the workout, one after the workout, and two or three tonight. Not bad. I'm a drinking machine!
