Monday 5:30pm - not sure what to expect. I thought I was going to be doing a weights session but I was told it was cardio again. This morning my legs are caning, I have the wobbles when standing (may also have something to do with the 3 inch heels I wear at work!). I was a good workout, lasted 50 minutes all up, so not bad and it was continuous and consistent training which is good for weight loss.
The session was made up of:
Warm Up
500metres on bike
Stretching
Punching Bag
This was a mix of jabs, hooks and upper cuts, plus punching with dumbbells for a minute then punching into the air for 30 seconds, stepups with shoulder presses, swinging a kettle ball weight and then squatting with a 5kg medicine ball than standing up and bouncing it against a wall. Got the heart going
Cardio
5 x 200 metre intervals on the rower with 15 second break in between (took about a minute each one)
9 minutes on the treadmill consisting of:
- 3 minutes at 10% incline
- 3 minutes at 5% incline
- 3 minutes at 2% incline (All up I managed 800 metres total, I'm so slow)
2.5Kms on the cross-trainer, going BACKWARDS - this was a killer, my legs were so wobbly after at and I'm afraid I made have sworn at the trainer (he asked how it was and I said it's f**ked) Took me 7 1/2 minutes
All followed by 10 minutes stretching out.
If I keep this up I'll be extremely sore come Saturday, but all I could think of when it started to get hard was I have to do this - for me and for NICU (there's my motivation!)
