This workout was HARD. I seriously had to take breaks just to avoid throwing up. I mean, everything I ate today was sitting in my chest on it's way up by the time we started the 1st circuit. I'm not going to lie- I almost missed this workout today. This morning- I woke up ready feeling all pitiful- due to some personal stuff I have going on. I tried to push it to the back of my mind and push play- that didn't work one bit. I was able to half ass my way through 20 minutes of the workout before deciding to quit.
Of course I decide to jump on the Team Beachbody message boards and facebook for some motivation. And of course I got it- but in a form that I didn't expect. Someone posted in the following
"A friend just posted this, love it!!! --- Breaking News: The Pity Train has just derailed at the intersection of Suck It Up & Move On and crashed into We All Have Problems before coming to a complete stop at Get the Hell Over It ~ enjoy the rest of your day ;)"
It was all the motivation I needed. So tonight- after watching the Biggest Loser- I got my ass up and I pushed play. I realized that if I want to drop some serious pounds by June- I really need to get my act together and avoid slipping into these pitty parties. So I'm so happy to say that I sweated a lot- I almost threw up- and I'm smiling b/c I love it.
OMG!!!! Why Oh Why have I committed myself to such pain? Why does Shaun T have so many variations of a freaking push up? Someone please help me understand.
The pogo is hard for me b/c of balance.
While I was doing the squat jumps- I felt a twinge in my back- (I didn't keep my form proper)- so I had to slow down some to avoid any severe injury.
I really like the squat push-ups even though I can't push myself back back up into the squat position. SMH- I got to work on that.
I also have to work on the POWER JACKS- I think that's what it's called- It the push up when you do a push up and then jump back on to your feet. I can't do that- so I simply do a push- up followed by an in & out move.
Power Jumps are so hard after doing all the other moves. SMH- I suffered through it- but I did it.
There were also side push ups, one-legged V push up- Push ups out my ASS. My shoulders are going to be so soar tomorrow. Anyway- Max day #3 coming up.......
What's your day looking like tomorrow?
