MORNING WORKOUT
Throwdown ETC - Renegade Boot Camp w/ Tandi Schaeffer
This morning’s boot camp was pretty intense. I LOVE the feeling of constantly being challenged physically, and believe it or not - MENTALLY as well! Tandi’s boot camp is very challenging as she is a real stickler for getting the form correct. That’s great, because it keeps you focused as you do the workout. When I do the boot camps, I feel like I am really getting a GREAT cardio workout. Boot camps last for an hour. By the end of them, I am usually so tired and worn out that I just can’t remember all of the exercises we did. I need to figure out a good way to track that.
AFTERNOON WORKOUT
Renegade Boot Camp w/ Jason Mertlich
I got a major “charlie horse” type of a cramp in some back muscles today (near my shoulder blade) when I did my morning workout. I hope it doesn’t affect my afternoon workout too much, but will go there knowing that I need to be a little gentle on my body this afternoon!
Today’s Boot Camp workout was pretty tough, and my hurting back didn’t help too much! It consisted of the usual warm up which was:
1. 6 minutes split into 30 second intervals of jumping jacks, foot shuffles, burpies, and mountain climbers
2. 1 minute of crunches
3. 6 minutes of foot work - split into 30 second intervals of hops, star jumps, foot shuffles, jumping squats, slalom hops, burpies, right hip turns, star jumps, left hip turns, jumping squats, high knees, burpies
4. 1 minute push ups
We had a short break to get a drink of water, and then entered the main portion of the workout. We went outside to do 10 “Gassers” (each Gasser is about 400 yards of running). Each Gasser was separated by a leg exercise. Odd numbered Gassers were followed by 20 jumping squats and 20 body squats. Even numbered Gassers were followed by 20 Russian Splits and 20 forward lunges.
Afterwords, we returned to the main floor of the Boot Camp area (inside) and did our Core workout - a mixture of crunches and alternating planks. For extra difficulty, I do my planks in pushup position and when doing side planks, I do what I call Cartwheel Planks - lifting the top leg so it looks like I’m on my side doing a cartwheel. I can usually only hold that for about 15 of the 30 seconds, but am working to improve that!
