As I’ve mentioned (a few times), I am doing the BodyRock.tv 30 day challenge. I’m a little behind the main group – just starting in on week 3. But I gotta tell ya – I’m lovin’ it! (bah-dah-ba-ba-bah)
This morning we repeated the fit test (50 seconds on, 10 seconds rest) we completed on day 1, and in most areas I am getting stronger! Woopwoop!
Week 1 |
|
| Exercise | Reps |
| Squat Jumps | 35 |
| Push-ups | 29 |
| Burpees | 15 |
| High Knees | 114 |
| Switch Lunges | 23 |
| Tuck Jumps | 22 |
| Sit-ups | 27 |
And then 2 weeks later:
Week 3
|
|
| Exercise | Reps |
| Squat Jumps | 40 |
| Push-ups | 29 |
| Burpees | 16 |
| High Knees | 141 |
| Switch Lunges | 33 |
| Tuck Jumps | 24 |
| Sit-ups | 26 |
Not bad for 2 weeks strength gains.
I’m pretty pleased. I think I could probably push myself to go a little faster on the squat jumps, burpees, & push-ups. Something to focus on. Plus, I know that the loss of single sit-up is not a huge deal, but when I started this challenge I was doing pilates daily. Perhaps that’s something I need to add back in every once in a while.
I also really need to start incorporating more cardio into my life once again – not that BodyRock doesn’t get my heart rate going – I am just craving that peaceful mental space that only a long run provides.
Time to get ready for class. We got dumped on last night, so I am sure my ride to school is going to be a beast.
I’ll leave you with a little Monday Motivation.
Sick.
