So it turns out that I was right when I thought I would burn more calories on legs day! In total (workout & walk home) I managed to burn 615 calories--- which I think is pretty epic for a weights workout. I'm so glad I asked my partner for the heart rate monitor, its really quite inspiring to check how much I've burnt & it's very interesting to look at my heart rate during various exercises. I somehow managed to reach a heart rate of 199 at one point and I was surprised to find that my rate went up significantly while planking, despite it being a stationary exercise.
I'm planning to do my Thursday workout tomorrow as I like to use Thursday as my core & stretch day (I usually go shopping for several hours on Thursday so I use that as my cardio). I'll still be doing my Friday workout on Friday and I'll do my SSS on either Saturday or Sunday with my partner. I really need to start packing soon, I can't believe I'll be on a plane in 6 days time!
