10/27: Full Body Workout – 21′s + Cardio + New Pics!

Today I started my workout week with a full body workout. I did the 21′s full body workout that I started last week. It’s getting a little easier…but not much. I guess I shouldn’t say easier, I should say my muscles aren’t dead tired and achy the next day anymore so I think they’re becoming more accustomed to the movements and the high number of reps. I also did cardio immediately following the workout because I haven’t done any in awhile and I didn’t want to waste the energy I had. More on that below AND an updated photo!

Full Body Workout (4 sets of 21 reps for all exercises)

This is the first time I have seen my upper back muscles and just about 6 abs – though not entirely defined, I can see them! Here’s my previous photo. I’m excited about that and about the shaping of my shoulders, traps and arms too. If I can get a flat stomach after 2 pregnancies, anybody can!
