Week 4 Tuesday
Strong is Sexy Fitness Challenge
I was doing okay with time this morning, until I started to review today's workout and it took me a few minutes to long to adjust to the exercises and instead of heading to the shower afterward I decided to go for a 10-minute run.
COMBO #1
I really liked the crab toe touch. It was a bit of a challenge and you could feel it working your abs. The dive bomber was something I was unable to do and performed modified push-ups, though now that I think of it; should have subbed cobra into downward dog- next time. I also messed up on the timer aspect so I only performed 2 rounds instead of 4.
COMBO #2
I performed a normal lunge and nixed the jump and the mountain climbers I'm used to. Man this was pretty intense and wow did my legs hate me about 2 rounds into this combo.
COMBO #3
This set proved a bit of a challenge and needed some modification for the one-leg hot attack. I performed a normal squat with a assisted (stairs) pike pres and the thigh shrinker exercise was easy to focus on your intensity in so you could really feel it in your abs and thighs.
MORNING RUN go
Around the block: 1.06 miles
EVENING RUN go
City Island Bridge to Kelker st and back: 2.93 miles
The weather was beckoning me to run and I was glad to sneak out before the sun set, because it felt amazing and my flow was set on. My first mile only took me 9:48 and my second 9:32, which is a huge improvement. Not sure if it's because of the bodyrock workouts or just a sugar rush from the small piece of red velvet cake I had prior to my run. Either way I would love to duplicate that rush again and again and again!
