December 4, New Program Day.

December 4, Tuesday, HY: Transform :20 Preview + LIIFT4 - Back/Biceps Circuit +  Quad-Challenge + TCF.

I had a lot of time today to work out, but I just wasn't feeling it for any cardio or T25 for some reason.  As I was procrastinating in my workout clothes, my coach posted a demo video of Shaun T's newest program due out in the new year.  Transform :20.  It was of Shaun T basically doing a few moves and progressions that come out in the program.  It uses a step, but I don't have a step so I did it without.  Luckily, there was a guy to do it without the step so I could follow him.  The moves were pretty standard stuff, but it seemed much tougher than it probably actually was because of the lack of a timer or a progress bar.  I didn't know anything about the program process. I went in blind and the moves seemed to go on forever.  I learned afterward that they were only about 30 seconds, but when you don't know when the end is, it seems like forever.  It was only about 15 minutes, but I got a nice sweat on.  Then I went to the next program.

Today was Back and Biceps.  It wasn't too bad.  I chose a weight that I thought was relatively light, but it turns out, it was enough to burn me out.  Again, it was a bit odd doing a program without BGM, but I guess I'm starting to get used to it.  It was only lifting weights today along with the core set.  My arms and back were feeling the pump.

I took a few minutes to do the Quad-Challenge.  The reps are still low so I could bang them all out pretty quickly.  Then the Flow.

In the end, I burned a good 1085 kcals.  I was surprised that I burned that many calories in this workout, but I was happy.
