10-16-15 HY: Insanity-Pure Cardio + Power 90- Ab Ripper 200 + Splits + TCF.
I got home early to do my workout, but when I saw that Pure Cardio was up, I procrastinated a bit because I knew the pain I was in for. I finally got started. The warm up was good. Started to sweat like crazy, though. In the main workout, I usually can survive up to the middle of the workout, about 7 moves in, but today, I only made it to move 5, Frog Squats, then I had to tap out. From that point on, for the next 9 moves or so, I had to take an extra moment between every 1-2 moves. I took about 30 seconds or so before the last move, Push up Jacks. I was just DYING after that!
I had a little time so I went for the Old School Power 90's Ab Ripper 200. Surprisingly, it totally killed my abs and I got an incredible burn and ab pump, and in just 200 reps!
I really went for it on my splits today. I put one of my Push up bars underneath my crotch and set that as my goal to touch. The first time, I didn't make it, but the next time, I tapped it, as well as the next few times. The final time, I went down, and was able to rest on the stand for about 10 seconds. The bar is about 13-15cm high. I felt a weird feeling in my inner thighs. It wasn't a rip or tear, but it was sort of like the feeling you get when you pull apart the bendy part of a bendy straw. As it elongates, it sort of pops out little by little. That is kind of what it felt like. We'll see if I can walk tomorrow.
The Flow, I really went for it, and tried to push my time down. I wanted to get down to 30 seconds. Usually, I get around 36 seconds. Cutting 6 seconds of the Flow is a huge thing. I got down to 33 seconds, but couldn't get to 30. I'll have to review closer and see if I can find places where I'm still pausing a bit too long.
In the end, I torched 930+kcals. Great way to end the week.
Welcome to the new direction for this blog. In it, I will post my experiences and thoughts related to the sport of Pickleball and my efforts to grow Pickleball in the Prefecture of Kagoshima located in the southernmost tip of mainland Japan. I hope to post pictures and videos of the activities and events that are held in Kagoshima. And one day, hopefully, you will come and play some Pickleball with us! Please comment if you visit!
