6-26-17 (Monday) HY: T25 - Beta: Speed 2.0 + Splits + TCF.

6-26-17 (Monday) HY: T25 - Beta: Speed 2.0 + Splits + TCF.

Unfortunately, no tennis today.  Fortunately, no tennis today so I can get in a round of T25!  I want to do at least one round of a Shaun T cardio routine to keep up my arch and leg strength and endurance up, but it hasn't worked out that way because of tennis and Pickle-Ball.  So I'm happy to take advantage of times when I can do some Shaun T cardio.

I really wanted to keep moving, so I went with a Speed routine.  To me, if memory serves, 2.0 is even more brutal than 3.0.  So I wanted to Push it a little harder today.  I was also really curious about how far I could get.  Was a Straight 25 even possible several weeks removed from my last Shaun T workout?  Quick answer, NO!  Right from the get-go, my calves and arches were tested.  I was actually pretty surprised that I made it through the entire Round 1, all three levels without a break.  I was able to make it through the first move of Round 2 Level 1, but with the second move also a hopping Up and Back move, my arches and calves just couldn't take anymore, so I tapped out at 16:10.  I got through Level 1 but had to tap out as Level 2 began at 13:00.  I took a couple more little breaks after that, but I made it to the end.

The Splits and Flow were "CHOICE!"

In the end, I torched a satisfying 730+kcals.  That was about right.  I usually burn around 1300kcals over 2+ hours of tennis.  It was a good day with a good workout.  I do love me some tennis and Pickle-Ball, but I hope I have more chances to do Shaun T again, soon!
