I got home early enough to have a good workout, but I sort of procrastinated and ended up having to rush some to get everything done in one sitting. But it was not necessary to shorten anything or cut anything out.

I was debating whether or not to give Insanity another go, but because of my slight time crunch, I went with T25. I should have made it a Straight 25, but I needed to take 2 short breaks to shake out my arches and calves. The first break was right before the first Burnout. My arches, calves, and the muscles in my upper foot right at the ankle were just BURNING!!! I had to stop and shake them out. Getting through the Burnout and the second half of the routine was fine until the Speed and Agility progression. That much hopping around, again, killed my arches. Other parts were fine this time. But in the end, I calculated the two breaks time and they ended up being only around a total of 30 seconds for both combined. So literally just shaking those extremities out then getting back into the workout.

moved right into Abs. It was really tough because I couldn't moan and groan today because the guy setting up my daughter's iPhone was downstairs. So when the pain hit, I had to really breathe very quietly. And there was a lot of pain. Trying to keep that 5kgs over my head and do alternating leg raises is totally killer. The Swiss Ball Circles is actually the easier move of the two. But that 4th set is just BRUTAL!!! I'm going to stick with level 13 for one more week.

Splits were good. I can feel something in my hip flexor that prevents my opening up my legs by getting pinched in the joint. Or at least that is what it feels like. So when that cramp comes on, I stand up, re-position, then go down again. Much better results. The Flow was the Flow.

In the end, I torched a week-ending 730+kcals. Nice way to end this week. Happy for the off day.
