Today I am the most sore I have been in awhile. An interesting workout last night in class. Another challenge day but not so much a challenge against the others in class as it was a challenge against yourself. We were told there were five exercises, push ups, sit ups, overhead claps, rows with a squat, and burpees. You had the choice depending on your level of intensity/experience to do 100, 150 or 250 of each in any order you wanted. I decided on the 250 and broke everything up into set of 25 or 50. Ouch is all I can say. Last time we did something like this I struggled the most with the sit ups, this time definitely the push ups and burpees. There was a time in my life when I could not do 25 burpees in a row now I am expected to 10 sets of 25 in a row. Crazy how things change. I don't care who you are 250 push ups hurt, I even did them all on my knees. There is no way possible, not at this point anyway that I could do 250 normal push ups, that's just crazy talk. Our time limit was 50 minutes (the hour of class less warm up and stretching), I was only able to complete 220 of each of the exercises. Props to those in class who were able to complete the entire set, well done indeed. I am sure they are just as sore as I am today.
Another rest day, finally. Six days in a row for four weeks now. I am impressed with myself. Mud race tomorrow, I will try to get some pictures but I am not sure if I will be able to do so. Hopefully we can at least get a before and after pic.
Oh and one last thing...TGIF!!!!
