Here's a snapshot of my work day yesterday.. I broke a $3,000 traction table, was told the dessert I made was dry (so don't eat it fatty.), and zapped a guys vasectomy clips with one of the electrical machines I work with. Seriously, vasectomy clips. I was more embarrassed than he was.
So yesterday, all I did after work was grab tacos and an ice cold beer and read a book. A workout just wasn't going to happen. That meant two workouts today. I don't know what the hell I did in the second fit test on thursday, but i was SORE! Every muscle in my legs was screaming after the first part of the warmup. It's weird because this is the exact day that I quit last time, and I think it was for the same reason! I did get through both workouts today though, and did them nearly back to back just to get it over with. The frst one was the plyometric circuit, and the second one was the pure cardio and cardio abs. So really it was like two and a half workouts? But its over! I'm glad I got both of them done early, I don't think I would have done the second one tonight!
Time to go get a smoothie and take the pup to the park!

Fit Test #2!
Today was day 15, Fit Test day! Here are my numbers and how much I improved:
Switch Kicks- 57 (+6)
Power Jacks- 52 (+5)
Power Knees- 116 (+11)
Power Jumps- 50 (+10) -- I still feel like dying on these.
Globe Jumps- 12 (+2) -- maybe these are so bad because they're after power jumps..
Suicide Jumps- 24 (+2)
Push Up Jacks- 25 (+6)
Low Plank Oblique- 64 (+12)
I've also lost about 4 pounds, which I don't think is due to ths workout program at all to be honest. I'm just really trying to stay away from crappy food.
All in all, I'm really happy with my progress! Now its time to go play some indoor tonight!

Oh hey abs, I almost forgot you existed..
Today was pure cardio and cardio abs. I did the pure cardio first, which wasn't bad at all except for the massive amount of sweat pouring out of my pores. I feel like I'm going to need to steam clean the carpet after these couple of months. Seriously.
After pure cardio, I walked into the kitchen and got my protein mix:

I always mix it with super cold water and chug it pretty quick because it doesn't taste great. I then realized, to my dismay, that I forgot to do the cardio abs program. Boooooo.So I did cardio abs with a whole bunch of chocolate protein sloshing around in my stomach. It was no bueno.
PS, maybe I'm just too immature for this workout, but Cardio Abs just made me air hump about 50 times in a row and called it an ab exercise. AND IT KILLED. I think they secretly record everyone doing it so they can all laugh at us. Sick freaks.
PPS, my shorts are getting baggier, my shoulders are getting a little more defined, and I just had to tighten my heart rate monitor strap today! Feelin good. Day 13 done, and tomorrow is a rest day!

Hellloooooo Monday!
Today was a really, REALLY good workout day! I felt really strong, I kept my heart rate up, my legs felt good, and there wasn't anything that made me want to barf or stab myself in the eyeball with a dull butter knife. Even though it was Monday, I think I felt so good because I actually slept last night. I got a good eight and a half hours, which was SO. AMAZING.
Sleep is the most underrated part of a workout regimen fo sho.
Day 12 done! Tomorrow I get my car :)

Days 10 and 11!
Nothing exciting to say, except that its done. Yesterday was cardio power and resistance again, which i did on nasty, stinky hotel carpet. No lie, I washed my hands after the workout! I also felt like I was going to fall through the floorboards at any second. Today, instead of doing the cardio recovery, I ran around on the beach with Kai, which she absolutely loved. I swear the dog thinks she's a fish. That is all, off to day 12 tomorrow! Mondays are tough, so I'm going to need some motivation!

Day 9? I think?
Pure Cardio today. This was the first day that my legs gave out before my lungs did. I can't decide if its a good thing or a bad thing... I guess I just need to get better with my recovery and drink my protein stuff, stretch, and roll out on my little foam roller. Basically do the stuff that I tell my patients to do. Other than that, nothing exciting to report. Keep calm and carry on.
Day 9 DONE.
Day 9 DONE.

Ouchkabibble.
Powerjumps.
You kill my knees.
You make me feel like I'm trying to run a marathon on half a lung. A smoker's lung.
That may have been a bit of an overexaggeration.
Nevermind, it wasn't.
I mean really, who can do these without looking like a ruh-tard?
He can't.
You know who can?
Shaun T "I talk in third person and take my shirt off halfway through my videos" can!
Geez. Get your rock hard abs and GET. OUT.
Day 8- check.
