Very tiring day with my daughter's Sports Day, but well worth the time. My daughter won her event, the High Jump beating out members of the track team in the process. So Proud!
After relaxing a bit, I got my butt up off the couch and started my workout.
New workout routine today. This one from the ChaLEAN Extreme DELUXE collection which I just purchased so I was excited to give it a try. Wow! It was really tough. Similar in pattern with the Burn Intervals, but the combination of moves just got my heart rate going and burned my out a lot quicker. The cardio moves were good, but I used a pair of 5kg dumbbells so that was really tough. High rep count and high speed with control. The cardio moves were supposed to be the tough half of this routine, but for me the weighted recovery was the tough half. As for the cardio, it was short and quick, I also went for deeper range of motion and explosive power on the come back so I wasn't able to go faster than Chalene's pace. My legs were dying at the end of this one along with everything else. Since this was my first time, it felt REALLY LONG!!! It will take a few more times going through this routine before it feels like a short 35 minutes workout.
For abs, I did the original Power 90 Ab Ripper 200+100. Basically, the same 10 moves with 30 reps each. KILLER!!!! My abs were killing me near the end of this thing. Really hit the core good.
Splits and Flow were well done. I am at the next plateau getting ready to keep on pushing.
In the end, I torched a good 700+kcals! Good start to my week.
