Disclaimers

Very Important Disclaimers:
1. I have a very active imagination and while most of these stories are mostly true, some of them have some exaggerations and are also only from my perspective, as well all know there are three sides to every story.
2. If you think this is about you, it's not.
3. If you are easily offended, you probably shouldn't read this blog. Go away, get out while you can!
4. If you like being offended or laughing out loud at the random shit that happens to me in my daily life, please proceed.
5. Do NOT forget to laugh, but only when appropriate. Try not to laugh too hard at my pain, or do, whatever.
6. I hate even numbers
7. I update the blog posts often, so even if you have read one once, it has probably changed a bit.

I never workout at home, except this once

So, I never, ever workout at home. There are a number of reasons I don't do this, see the reasons below:
1. Who wants to work out from home when you can people watch at the gym?
2. I have two dumbells that are too heavy for me
3. The dogs like to try to exercise with me, which in theory sounds nice that they want to join in on the fun, but in reality makes it really difficult to do anything
4. I feel silly working out at home, granted I feel silly alone working out at home and that really makes no sense, but it is what it is
5. I live in an old house and when I do anything, like burpees, the entire house shakes AND it just dawned on me that if anyone were to hear this, they would probably think I was doing something way more fun than what I actually am doing
6. I have a gym membership, why not go use it, along with the equipment I don't have at home
7. I don't have another reason right now, but I don't like even numbers

Anyway, with all that being said, today I decided I would try to do a quick, efficient work out at home, alls I have is a metabolic circuit, I can figure out replacement exercises for the couple of exercises I don't have the right equipment for...

So, here's how it went down. First there was a fly, like a buzzing around fly, my three dogs decided to run around all over the house trying to get this fly...well the two smaller guys do this, I'm not convinced the puppy has any idea what he is chasing, he just wants to join in the fun. Finally, the fly fun calms down, so I begin my exercises. The 65 pound pup decides that he wants to try to help me with the 25 dumbbell...as much as I acknowledge that this is a very sweet move, it makes it extremely difficult to move that dumbell (which I am already have some trouble with, without the dog in my face). So, he gets put in his crate, he can watch me from there...next, I am on a chair, getting creative with another exercise and my Wazowski actually starts to growl at me, yeah, I don't know, he is special. Next I'm on the floor and Atticus tries to lay down on me, sweet, but not helpful at all.

Regardless, 30ish minutes later, I am done, sweating like crazy and all three of them are warn out. Who knew you could tire out three pups just by working out in front of them, exhausted by association? I think yes. I will definitely be doing that again. I feel like the most efficient dog mom ever!
