Poor Air Quality

I had every intention of waking up this morning and doing my run.  I was excited to go, but alas, it was not in the cards.  I know this sounds like an excuse, and I do not deny that, but with the fires here in San Diego right now, the air quality is terrible (and unfortunately I do not have a face mask)!  I spoke with my husband about my predicament and he recommended that today was not the best day to do cardio.

After doing some research, I discovered that he was right (even though I won't admit that to him... lol).  I realized, too, that since I started my working out last week, I have not had a real rest day from cardio.  My body needs a bit of time to recover.  Thus, today I decided (or rather the fires decided for me) to forgo cardio and just do my arm exercises and plank.  I will say, though, that I am harboring a little bit of guilt for not getting out there anyway.  But on the bright side, at least I won't be coughing up a lung for the next week!

Accountability Exercise of the Day:

Arm Workout: 15 minutes
Planks: 20 seconds (Day 2 of the 30 day plank challenge)
