Walking around like a cripple
I sure wish it would stay warm. I don't think that is too much to ask since I live on a tropical island. This morning for FIP (Fitness Improvement Program) we headed over to the dormitories (which are 4 stories tall) to get in our workout. We did super sets for our workout today. We started out running the dorms, up to the top and back down is one set. Did I mention that we took medicine balls over there with us. Well after you get finished running the stairs, you pick up your medicine ball and with both hands you push the ball out in front of you (1), back in and then up above your head (2). You do 40 of those, then you drop the ball and do 40 squats, then drop down and do 40 crunches. After that you do 4 laps around the parking lot and that is one set. First set is 40 reps, Second set is 30 reps, Third is 20 reps, and Fourth is 10 reps and then work back up if you are fast. I got through the 4 sets and was started on the second set of 20 reps when we finished. I SURE HOPE THAT MADE SENSE. LoL!! When my legs finally cooled down after I got to work I was having a hard time walking around which if you've ever had sore quads and hams you know what I'm talking about. You dread inclines or steps of any kind. After work I got in my 3 miles (3.3 miles to be exact) and I know I probably did 2 miles over at the dorms. I will have to start taking my GARMIN with me when it stays charged. Tomorrow morning should be interesting. Until next time...
