9-11-15 HY: ChaLEAN Extreme- Burn It Off + Ab Burner + Yoga moves.

9-11-15 HY: ChaLEAN Extreme- Burn It Off + Ab Burner + Yoga moves.
Today was a rather unorthodox day. First of all, I invited my sister to workout with me and she readily accepted. She just signed up for the 30-day trial at beachbody so she wanted to try some routines I do. So I chose Burn it off. Working out with someone really changes the dynamic of the workout. For me, I felt I needed to step it up and get through the routine with seemingly no problem. That in and of i...tself really pushed me a lot because I went right up to my limit and a little past. According to my HRM there was a point that my rate shot up past 200bps. But this was the first time I had to take a longer break between rounds. I also had to teach the moves in between each move so there wouldn't be much of a break, so I was moving more than usual. Got a great lung burn on the cardio today.
Then my sister suggested we try Ab Burner, so I went with it. Personally, since I did this routine yesterday, it was a bit easier today, but it was still tough, but I still had to play it cool. HA! But I couldn't avoid the mandatory occasional grunt groan and moan after tough moves.
Then we tried some yoga poses and shot some pictures. Last year we shot a whole series of yoga poses together and we wanted to do it again. But since we didn't have much time we only shot a couple poses. It was fun!
In the end, I torched another solid 800+kcal workout. Plus the fun of working out with my sister was a great bonus!
