Today's workout consisted of doing a 100 reps per exercise, versus sets and reps. Below is a breakdown:
Warm-Up: Lots of stretching
BB Squats x 100
Decline Crunches x 100
Seated Leg Extensions x 100
Seated Calf Raises x 100
Double Crunch x 100

So, I have been needing some new running shoes for a while now but I hate forking out large sums of money for my running shoes. So I did what any good budget friendly runner does, I headed over to Academy (I had a give certificate from my son (X-Mas Gift) that I hadn't used yet) to see what I could find.

And I found a pair of Nike Downshifter 4 on sale for only $39.99. That's a great price and they had my size!
They are so comfy and bright (I know that's because their new) and probably needed months ago!
I always buy my running shoes 1 size bigger because it helps with the purple toe thing when you run the longer distances. They had them in 2 additional colors and they were both on sale, so I may go back and get at least one more color, just so I can switch them out. How much are you willing to spend on your shoes? How do you pick out your shoes...what is the deciding factor?

Shoes are one thing I dont skimp on. I'll happily pay $100-$120 *if* they're right for me. Once I find a style that works for me though, I'll scope out cheaper deals on them online to stock up. It helps that running companies often discontinue/change styles each year so I can get the version I like on clearance the following season.
ReplyDeleteso i thought i was one of the few crazy ones who did 100's on leg day!!!
ReplyDeleteGREAT job!!!!
and yes,when it comes to running shoes,i am willing to pay more (100-120)the deciding factor for me is finding the support my weird feet need!!mizunos,adidas and some new balance works best for me!
I'm just so cheap...can't do it! Now I will go up to almost a $100 if it's a pair I've really been wanting...but only then!
