12-21-16 HY: Combat HIIT 1 Power + Splits + TCF.

On a normal week, Wednesday would be my mid-week recovery day.  But this week, I started on Saturday, so yesterday should have been my recovery day, but I wanted to get keep the Cardio/Resistance pattern going so I stuck with resistance yesterday.  Today is Cardio, so I went back to Combat.  Today was Power so I was happy, mainly because it was a shorter routine.

The routine starts right off with a brutal warm up that burned out my legs.  Lots of lower body work.  But the next track, the weighted track really got my heart pumping.  But I was able to get through it.  The next few cardio tracks were okay, but all seemed to focus on lower body so that meant TOTAL BURN!!!  But that Track with the squats, then transitioning non-stop into jumping lunges. I was dying at the end of each round.  But this time, I counted out the reps so I know how many I had to do in the second round.  Knowing the rep goal helps me push to the end. There were 34 jump lunges.  The Burpee Track just about knocked me down, but I wasn't going down, not today.  I really had to BRING IT to do the 16rep round without stopping.  Took an extra long break, about 30seconds longer, to catch my breath.  In the Core Track, I did each move for 16 reps, which means I had to go a little longer than Dan and Rach.  I was also so spent after each move, I took a few breaths extra to recover.  Awesome Routine!!!

Core was already still sore from three days straight of abs, so I decided to rest my core from the regular focused ab work and go straight to the Splits and Flow.  Added more time than yesterday, the most so far, and I got some good results.  Flow was Flowingly great!

In the end, I torched a kindly 756kcals.  Extremely intense workout today. Happy to get it done!
