My schedule this week is getting weirder and weirder. I had to add a make-up class to my Friday morning schedule so now I have no time for a workout before tennis, and that is for the next two weeks. Total bummer. I'm going to have to adjust my workout schedule yet again. Even more turned around than before.
Today, Triometrics was scheduled, but since I did MMX yesterday I didn't want to do two cardio workouts in a row. I already did two resistance workouts in a row Sunday and Monday, and I didn't want to repeat that feat with cardio. So I was going to do Eccentric Lower, but by the time I had decided to do that, time was too short, so I changed the plan and did Pilates X and on top of that, no Cold Start, just went straight into it.
Third time's a charm! I think I actually like the routine now. On move
7. Bridge Lifts, I started to cramp in my on-the-ground leg so I backed
off and moved my foot further from my body. My range of motion on the
bridge move is so small, I just can't get my hips to create a straight
surface from my knees to my head. I always dip at the hips and I can
barely raise them 2-3 inches. When my leg is up, it is even smaller,
more akin to a twitch than a raise.
Had some space trouble with the V Rocker. Had to bend my left knee every time I came up because I was right next to the wall. Still was terrible with move 12. The swimmer/The Flutter/The Bad Attitude. I am okay with the first two, but the last part, TERRIBLE. Just can't get my thighs off the ground for more than a slight hop.
With all those side plank/leg raise moves, my butt was burning, almost cramping at one point. I did the Pretzel alright, but I feel as if I'm leaning a little too far forward when my leg is back behind me and I'm doing the leg raises. But if I don't lean forward, my leg would be on the ground. Just terrible range of motion and flexibility. The ultimate double whammy with Pilates it seems.
But overall, I had a good workout. Felt really loose afterward. Burned a total of 280kcals.
