9-22-15 HY: One on One- On One Leg + 10 Minute Trainer- Cardio + Splits + TCF.

I can't believe I forgot about this routine.  I got this routine a while ago, put it in my library and didn't find it until just today. So I decided to go for it if it wasn't too long.  I went for it because it is only 30 minutes or so long. Perfect!  I had thought all along that this was a lower body routine, but in is actually an upper body routine with a lot of secondary and tertiary muscle work on the lower body and core.  I only used the bands (same color as Tony) and a pair of 10kgs dumbbells.  I got a huge pump and burn from this routine and I got some major soreness in my chest (for some reason) and legs the following day.  The biggest surprise is the soreness in my triceps.  It didn't feel, at the moment, that I was really working out my triceps all that intensively, but the following day, there was a latent soreness that screamed "tough workout".  All the moves were done twice, first on one leg, then on the other leg.  A shoulder move, a Tricep move, then sort of a core move, but each move made each level of my body work.  The pace of the routine was extremely slow.  A lot of talking between most of the moves, but it was really just right for how I'm feeling now so I was happy with it.  My balance was terrible! Or actually, it was terrible on the right side. A little better on the left.  But I was standing on a very soft surface so that may have been a big factor.  I was constantly tapping out, and I was, frankly, getting a little frustrated with myself.  I was wearing shoes as well.  So next time, I may try doing it on a harder surface and see if that works better.  But I got some major upper body pump by the first round.  Felt good!

I wanted a little more, so I added the little 10MT-Cardio routine.  Got my heart pumping just at the right level so as not to kill me, but give me a good sweat and cardiovascular workout.  But my legs were noodles at the end, shaking like crazy at the end.

Splits and Flow were very good so I was happy with that progress.  Got to keep pushing towards that goal of full splits by Dec. 31.  I am considering going back to review each move again so I can recall them by name during my Flow.  If I have time, that is the plan.  Still very jet lagged, but getting better.  One huge benefit of the Jet lag is the amount of sleep I'm getting.  Between 8-10 hours the past 3 nights.  I'm going to try and keep this going so I can get in as many hours before midnight as possible. I want to be able to get to sleep by 10pm every night for the month of October and I want to see if that has any influence on my weight, since all these trainers are saying fat burning happens during sleep. We'll see if they're right. So I'm getting a running start into October.

In the end, i torched over 700kcals again today.  With the shorter routines, that is my average so I'm happy!
