Today was a nice day. Just sort of relaxed in the morning, doing some things to get ready for the Holidays coming up. Then I went out with my girls and did a little shopping. We ate out, but just at Subway, no buffet. When we got home, I went ahead and got ready for my workout.
Today is the final run through for Total Body. So I was really wanting to send it off with a bang, and I think I did just that. For the first time in a long time that I was able to do the second round of Pull Ups in the first Circuit Set without a mid-set break. Straight 15 on that second set. YES!!! Everything went well. I felt really strong.
The Second Circuit Set also went well. Felt really strong and killed all the moves in both sets. Weights were all the same as before.
The Third Circuit Set was a lot tougher. I wasn't able to do a straight 15 on the second set of the 1, 1, 2, Military presses. I had to dig deep to get the last five, and the very last rep, brought me to the line of failure. I couldn't have done one more rep. On the Post Delt Raise, the first set was still at 5kgs, but I raised the second set weight to 6.25kgs. That is a huge jump for me. There were some odd numbers in the second set. On the right side, I had to do a 10/5 splits, but on the left side, I killed the 15 straight reps. Absolutely KILLED IT!!! I was actually planning to take a break at 10reps, but I was feeling really good, so I finished out the set. Imagine my shock. Usually, my left is weaker, but not today. The rest of the Circuit went very well.
The final Circuit Set was awesome. Nailed everything. I was feeling the intense burn in my biceps from the first set. Tris were good on both sets. All the moves were killer moves, but I nailed them. Woo Hoo! I'm very satisfied with today's performance. Check out the worksheet. Today's numbers are the numbers on the very right of the sheet, with the circle.
I went right into Abs, but I remembered that the last time, it felt a bit easy, and I wasn't getting the burn as I had previously gotten. So, I added 5 reps to every move. Except in the case that I wanted to do a total of 50 reps, to keep my run going. OH MY GOODNESS!!! That was TOTALLY INTENSE!!! Who knew that just adding 5 reps to the mix would bring on an incredible burn at the end of the night. SUPER STUFF!!! Got such an incredible BURN!!! I'm still feeling it, 3 hours later.
Splits were good. I added the extra moves and added time to other moves. I need to push hard down the stretch, Pun intended. The Flow was on point.
In the end, I torched 1230+kcals. Great way to do a workout.
