Hi Gina,
The PT called me last night and asked could we change to MW & F of this week because his normal 6AM is out of town all week. Of course I couldn't say no, I'm miss ready to move the world and my body
. Well, I did just that and if I sit for over 2 hrs at a time, I can hardly move. I'm loving and hating it all at the same time.
The workout consisted of 5 minutes of cardio to get my heart rate up and then 3 sets of 20 squats with a 35 lb weight and 3 sets of arm pulls at 55 lbs to help the back muscle (which he says is one of the biggest muscles we have, I could swear it's my butt
). Then we did the stairmaster 3 times for 1 min & 30 seconds at level 6, boy didn't I feel like I was flying on that machine. In between we did another set of 3's on a different machine, still working on the larger muscles of the body. After that, I was sweating so bad, I thought I was going to fall out. He then went and got small ball that must of weighed at least 7-10 lbs and made me jump and hit the top of a wall for 3 sets 30 seconds, the longest 30 seconds of my life. And on top of all that, in between each set I had to crunches, 6 sets of 20 and then finally it ended and he wanted me to do at least 30 min of cardio. Gina, I could only do 20 minutes without falling off the machine.
It was an excellent workout. He really knows how to jump start your body and trick it into feeling like you've done more than you really have. I am so looking forward to the challenge over the next couple of months.
Until later, have a great one!
