8-05-16 HY: Combat HIIT 2 Shock Plyo + ChaLEAN Extreme - Ab Burner + Splits + TCF.

Early afternoon workout today.  Finally time to do a complete workout with some extras thrown in.  This routine is a BRUTAL one.  The warm up, with those jumping lunges is just killer.  I legs were, and usually are, dying by the end of just the warm up.  They definitely warmed up quick, but they got primed for the second wind which came in the next interval.  Even though it is a short routine, it is very intense.  I was able to keep up, and keep pace.  I almost fell behind during the short leg round with the weight, but I pushed to keep up and get through it in time.  I was very glad that I was able to do this routine with no extra breaks and not mid-interval breaks.  But I did have to extend a few of the interval transition breaks because I got winded.  Especially with the second interval with the Burpees and the Weighted interval.  Great routine!

Moved right into the BONUS ABS round.  I wanted to finish off the ChaLEAN Extreme Ab routines this week, so I added this one today.  Short and sweet.  Being only 11 minutes, I am able to really push hard and burn my abs because I know the pain will end quickly.  Being able to see the goal is huge when there is self-inflicted pain involved, for sure!  This is usually my "Go To" ab routine when I'm short on time, but today, I could sink into every rep since there was not time constraint.  Really burned up my abs today.

Splits were good, got a little hitched up in my hip flexors, but worked it out.  Finally got low and with straight legs all around.  Happy that there is not extraneous pressure on my knee.  Flow was on point.

In the end, I was able to torch a nice 777kcals.  Very nice way to end my week and Flow into the weekend and off day.  But tomorrow may hold some Foam Rolling.  Fingers crossed!  Happy Weekend!
