7-6-15 HY: PiYo-Sweat + Splits + TCF.

For the benefit of my shoulder, I am starting PiYo. Hopefully, by the time I'm finished with it, my shoulder will be able to take the resistance training including Pull Ups on the bar.

Today's routine is at the beginning of the program so I though it would be easy.  Foolish assumption... AGAIN!  Of course it started off easily enough with the warm up. But when HEAT started, my legs really started to feel it.  By the time POWER rolled around, I was about ready to roll around on the floor.  Stretch and Strength felt so good.  One thing about PiYo that I was really impressed with, is that is really improved my push up endurance. When I did this program last year, by the end of it, I was able to hammer out 50+ push ups with no problem.  I hope to get to that level or better this time around.  Today, I was able to stick with Chalene though all the push ups. Something I was not able to do at the beginning of the program before.  Also, I'm not doing the 2 month program, but just a run through of the routines over maybe two to three weeks as part of my hybrid program.  I'll probably do a few of the programs multiple times though in addition to other types of physical activity for my workouts.  But true to its name, I majorly SWEAT!

I went right into Splits and pushed it low and hard.  Felt the pain that brings gain to be sure.  My Flow was also good.  But I did have a bit of a stumble on the first Flow because my legs were really quivering from the workout.  But once I got my legs under me, I nailed it.

In the end, I torched over 600kcals.  Less that normal, but I'm expecting that type of performance through PiYo.  I also finished about 30 minutes quicker than usual so that was a nice bonus. Time to Bring IT!!!
