Greetings my Buddies!
Woo Hoo - well, I have completed three of my five HELL WEEK workouts at Orange Theory Fitness!
Day two included timed planks alternating with the intensive rowing machine blocks, treadmills running at "all out", and free weight work. They worked the plank up to three minutes by the end of the workout! That is a lot of time if you do not have a strong core! And, if you let go too soon, your "penalty" was burpees ! Argh!!!!
Day three included all hill work on the treadmill alternating with free weight work, and then multiple exercises and repetitions on the TRX straps alternating with distance rowing! I survived! I do not do all the repetitions if it is too much, and I used the elliptical at higher gears than I have earlier done.
Tomorrow is day four for me and I believe it is going to be a big leg day! Probably deadlifts, squats and lots of rowing and hills again. Ouch...
I am having fun challenging myself though...and eating protein and sleeping more to accommodate the higher intensity workouts.
The new word of the week is ENERGETIC.
I am dedicated, determined, and diligent.
