HCB's Journal, 23 May 2018

Greetings my Fuschia Followers!

I am totally back in the saddle the last three days - feels good to be on track. SO Orange Theory Fitness is having "May Mayhem" this week. Do four workouts out of six for a towel. These are not everyday workouts...they are brutal!

Sunday was called "Bedlam", Tuesday was called "Pandemonium" and today was called "Apocalypse." Yeah, they felt like it, too.

One more Mayhem class on Friday, and then back to my usual class on Saturday!

Anyone else ever done "rolling burpees"? Don't ask...

Note to self: May 45-50/35-40/10-15-20

"Rolling Burpees" no way!

I like the NEW WOTW! Charles Noble, from Wikipedia: "Charles 'Chuck' Carmin Noble (May 18, 1916 – August 16, 2003) was an American Major General and engineer who worked on the Manhattan Project, led construction in Nuremberg after World War II, developed the early American ICBM program, was the chief Engineer in the Vietnam War, and made the controversial yet successfully decision to open Morganza Spillway in northern Louisiana for the first time to relieve pressure upstream and save New Orleans during the 1973 Mississippi Flood."

I'm not going to be able to get four of the Mayhem workouts in, but dang! I am ridiculously sore from Monday's "Commotion" workout (SOOOO many variations of squats). Today was the first time I saw rolling burpees. They really having lots of versions of burpees, it seems.

@Ladyvarda! Believe it or not I could almost do them! I just had to step down off the deck after the pushup - no jumping for me!
