For some reason, 4:30 am today wasn't as bad as last week. But, I felt a little thrown off because I tossed my workout clothes in the dryer last night and they weren't dry this morning, so I spent some extra time hunting down more clothes. Then, I got caught in traffic on the way to the Y. At 5 am. When I finally got there, the trainer girl took our measurements. To my dismay, I've lost a half inch in the last 4 weeks. A loss is a loss, I know that, but I know what I'm capable of, and a half inch isn't it. Then, we started our work out. It didn't seem bad this week, oh but we were fooled. Our workout was all on or next to the treadmill this week which I actually kind of liked.
*5 mins on treadmill at 3.5 and 10% incline *Medicine Ball squats- 20 lb medicine ball, squat until your butt hits the end of the treadmill. - 20x *Push Press- 20 lb medicine ball, push out and then press up. 20x *Plank- 30 sec *Push Up on the treadmill. Place feet on the outside of the belt and hands on the inside bars. Complete push ups while keeping elbows as close to the ribs as possible. 20X *Burpees- All the way to the floor. 10x *5 mins on treadmill at 3.5 and 10% incline -Repeat for 1 hr. Trainer girl didn't realize she had us walking for 5 mins at the start and finish of the workout, so we actually ended up walking for 10 mins each time which was a bit of a welcome break even though it was straight uphill. This workout was different in that I feel like my arms, shoulders, and chest did most of the work. Normally I feel like it's the lower half of my body that is worked most. I can already barely lift my arms over my head. Should be an interesting day! I have 2 more weeks left of this class. They are starting another 14 week session right after this one is over. I really want to do it, but it's kind of expensive. I'll have to see how our budget is looking before I can even consider it. Today is a busy day for us! Excited to enjoy this beautiful weather we're having here in Indy! Heading to the park for a picnic lunch! Hope you enjoy your day as well!
