Today was my first day back at boot camp since Atlanta and it just about killed me! We did a plyo/TRX mix workout which mostly focused on legs.
For plyo we did:
- star jumps
- jumping jacks
- split squats
- stair steps
- butt kicks
- jump rope
and in between each of those there was another exercise to transition like:
- hopping with both feet
- plank walk
- crab walk
- lunges
- sumo walk
Then, after we finished a circuit of plyo we went and did full body stuff on the TRX which, all throughout, included:
- legs, chest, back, shoulders, arms, core
This was a very difficult workout. I never got my heart rate down the entire session and there were times when I thought I wouldn't make it but, I did.....which is nice. After the workout I was able to talk with my trainer and another woman Wendy. We talked about the struggles of what to eat and I shared a bit about my concern with running now that we're outside some. They're always so encouraging and supportive so it's good that they know where my heads at.
Tonight I'm going to go running with my friend Monica....ok, let's call it a jog. Monica is basically a marathon runner and runs all the time but I know that she'll be super supportive and motivating so I'm looking forward to that. I am a little bit worried about my legs holding up after this morning (and then knowing I have to go back tomorrow morning!) but I know I can do it and it'll be a good challenge. Plus, it'll mean more calories burned and stronger lungs which I'm ALL ABOUT!
I'll write about that workout and food later.
