Day 30: Workout (90 Day Challenge)

It's Day 30 which means the 90 Challenge is 1/3rd the way over! I feel like it's gone super fast. I'm amazed at how much a challenge holds me accountable!

Rob was back at boot camp today so it was good to workout with Wendy again. We did 3 sets of running intervals to check heart rate and recovery (from resting heart rate to a level 9 sprint for 30seconds). My hamstring was tight but I didn't feel the pain I felt yesterday. I did lots of stretching so that probably helped. I was amazed at how much faster my levels 7-9 were from when I started and I was floored at how quickly I recovered each time. I'm glad to see that all of this training is having such a healthy affect on my heart.

After the interval runs we went back to the park for upper body and core work. We did the following:
  • Military Presses
  • Wide Rows
  • Bicep Curls
  • Tricep Extensions
  • Front Plank
  • Reverse Plank
  • Reverse Plank with one leg in the air (switching legs 1/2 way through)
  • Side Planks (both sides obviously)
  • Crunches
  • Crunches reaching up to one leg
  • Back Scratchers
I was exhausted when I woke up this morning but working out has changed all of that and I feel much more ready to tackle my day!
