HY: Basketball + 10MT-Total Body 2/Core Cardio/Upper Body + TC-Flow + Splits

HY: Basketball + 10MT-Total Body 2/Core Cardio/Upper Body + TC-Flow + Splits

Had kind of a housework family day. In the morning I completed a Spring Vacation Project, which was to switch the flooring on my workout/office area. It had gotten big holes and cracks in it and was getting dangerous to walk on because one might trip. So I took the whole morning to clear everything off the flooring, switch it out with a new one, the put everything back. Cleaning everything as I went.  I was thinking that that would have been a good workout in itself. I should have worn a HRM.  Worked up a good sweat, too.  My room now looks and feels like new!  Watched a movie with my kids in he early afternoon, then played some basketball with my son.  Again, I should have worn a HRM.  It was getting late so I came in to start my regular workout.

I had forgotten how intense the 10MT could be.  Previously, I had used the easy bands so I guess I was breezing through it. Now, I'm using the second to hardest bands I have and I'm dying.  There was no way I was going straight through any of these workouts.  In TB2 my shoulders, back, and legs were dying. I barely made it through CC, and my arms got a huge pump and burn with UB.  Bi's and Tri's were really feeling it.  On several of the moves, I couldn't last to the end of the minutes. WIMP!!!  I was really breathing heavy through out, and today I needed to get out the big towel to keep my sweat at bay.

I did a slow flow today to renew that muscle memory for the flow. Felt really good.  When all was done, I had burned almost 900kcals with my splits yet to go. I plan to do them later after my bath.  It's going to be interesting because the new flooring is very slippery so I wonder if I'll have a good time staying up... or down...

Just finished splits and it was great with the new slippery floor. Easy to inch out and get lower. I think I hit my lowest mark to date, but still hip flexor tightness.  Maybe I'll do some foam rolling on them in the days to come. Great workout. If I add all the extras, I torched over 1000kcals today.
