No night class tonight, so I was free to take my time with my workout. I am still giving the Body Weight BEAST a try so I'm going to stick with it for at least the rest of this month while sticking a ChaLEAN Extreme routine in where I can. The plan is for one of them tomorrow. I wasn't able to do the Anabolic stretch afterward like I wanted to because I didn't have the time to read enough about it, but I have some free time tomorrow so I'm going to bone up on it and then give it a try, hopefully.
Today, Workout B was up and this one was really tough the last time. So much so that I wasn't even able to finish the whole routine. Today, I was determined to finish no matter what, and I did. But I wasn't able to do it straight through. I was able to do the first Circuit with no break. I was able to keep the time for all ten rounds and I was going all out. Even though the moves are easy, I started to feel those inner thighs burn at the end. The last time I did this routine, my inner thighs were toasted for at least four days. Hopefully I will be able to recovery much quicker this time around. I took a few minutes to recover before starting the second circuit. I felt good, but I needed the break after the 10th round, and then one more break after the 17th round. Then, I just knocked out those last three rounds. I was stoked! The Eccentric Pull-Ups are brutal. The last round before each break, I was breaking form. I was flaring my elbows way too much on especially the last rep. But I was very happy that I was able to get through all 20 rounds.
I wanted to get in a little burning abs, so I did the A40 Core routine. The recommended number of round is three rounds, but I ended up doing 4 rounds. Next time, I'll get in 5 rounds so I can cut at a straight 200 total reps. But the progression of the moves is a real killer. In the second round, my abs were burning on the second move. The moves are simple, but the progression is killer. I was burning from the second round to the end.
I was bushed, so I took my shower and then got in my Flow and and EMS in the evening.
In the end, I burned 925 kcals. Again surprised that I got that good a burn. But I did have a moment where my heart-rate was topping out at 200+bpm, probably during the Eccentric Pull-Ups. Next time, one less break. Going for it.
