What kind of exercise did you do today?

What did you do at the gym today or what kind of exercise activity were you able to fit into your schedule. Today I did 45 minutes of spin class, 15 minutes of interval walk/jog on the treadmill with 5 minutes of stretching. I try and do about 45-60 minutes of steady state or high intensity interval cardio training cardio two times a week on days that I don't do weights, since I lift so heavy I don't have enough energy for that much cardio on the same day, plus like most of you, I don't want to spend my whole day in the gym. Yesterday I lifted with my husband and we did back and triceps, doing giants sets of each. This meant we did back first and did one set of each of the 6 back exercises back to back and then rested 2 minutes repeating that 2 more times increasing weight for each set. We then moved onto triceps and did the same thing with the 6 more triceps exercises. It was nice working out with someone else, I think you push yourself a little more plus you have that other person there to encourage and help you.
I hope you all are doing well with your nutrition and figured out how much you should be eating daily for your bodies needs.
Have a great week and if there is any questions or topics you would like to see me discuss, let me know and I will do my best.
