Mission Accomplished

Hey Guys! It’s officially Day 1, 9:58am pacific time, and I’m one workout down and one breakfast down of…. wait for it…. wait for it….

66 workouts and ~310 meals/snacks!

let the count down begin.

So make it 65 workouts!

Do you want to know what I did? I did a Nike Training Club circuit on my iPhone and it was HARD! I had everything someone beginning to work out suffers from.

I felt like I would vomit once
I had to make my 1 minute rest time in the middle about 10 minutes
I couldn’t even do one of the exercises, those darn burpee things

I did a Get Lean, according to my plan in the intermediate category. Maybe this was too hard, but usually the beginner exercises are just too easy for me. I picked The Shredder because it sounded good.

Warm Up

2 min straight leg kicks
2 min back pedal
1 min slide and glide
1 min recover

Work Out

2 min alternating forward lunge with arm curl
1 min plank
30 sec tuck jumps
2 min side lunge with medicine ball rotation
2 min ski jumps with medicine ball
1 min reverse crunches
1 min hip lifts
2 min single leg deadlift dumbbell row (this was so hard!)
1 min burpee to shoulder press
30 sec squat flips with 180 degree turns
1 min push away balance
1 min recover (try about 10)
2 min plank row (I couldn’t even do this one, the plank holding the free weights really hurt my hands so I did 1 min plank and then 1 min rows)
1 min reverse crunches
30 sec modified burpee
1 min push away balance
30 sec kick downs

Cool Down

1 min lying quad stretch
1 min standing hamstring stretch
2 min pretzel stretch

The good news, is my ankle feels great. It’s handling today’s workout great. I think changing up my workouts and not doing the same thing over and over really helps. Running is just too reparative.
