TGIF~ I Think!

I can usually count on my boot camp instructor to ensure I start my Friday's off right.  In my work week I work Monday- Thursday 10 hour days so I look forward to Friday more so than the average person.  Making Friday's the hardest boot camp day is livable only because I know that after 6am I am free at last!

I was a few minutes late to this session which meant I got 5 minutes of run time less than the rest of the group so of course I am mad because I am only cheating myself. 

As a class we have no idea what our instructor is going to make us do until we finish the treadmill run.  Its either stay upstairs (which I like) or get a mat, a weight and walk down stairs to the basket ball courts (which I don't like) because things can only get harder if there is more room to exercise in.  This automatically turns a lunge that would be upstairs from 15 reps since the distance is shorter to 50 reps because you have more court to cover.  Something else I learned about the down stairs that I don't like is the a rock climbing flooring that has rubber cushy shreds (I am sure in case someone falls off the wall). John made us run on this which creates a quick sand effect so running is super hard.  Yes I am complaining a lot but you would too if someone told you to do:

  • 50 push ups
  • 50 sits ups
  • 50 squats while jumping over a bar
  • 50 bicep curls with a resistance band
  • 50 triceps with a resistance band
  • jump rope until you die or for 50x which ever come first
  • wall sits until you die or for 3-5 min
  • core excercises with a ball

And to seperate the madness he told us too.....

Run  10 laps in rubber band mesh that makes you sink like quick sand.

We were able to repeat the exercises 3x and run 3 laps... (uh Yeah... He is crazy)

Lets just say 60 minutes couldnt come quick enough!
