Behind Posting As Usual

I think I have set a record for how far behind I am in posting my workouts.  I've been running in 10 different directions lately and just haven't had the time or inclination to log on and write them up.  But, we are leaving tomorrow for a trip to China and I wanted to get my workouts logged on here before we leave.  So, here is the quick version of what I've been up to for the last week and a half.

 Couplet Style Wo 10/30, each performed 3xs
1a. Explosive Star Jump
1b. Walk Out Push Ups
 
2a. Pike Leg Switch
2b. Maltese Situps (30 seconds wasn't really long enough to do these justice)
3a. Get Down/Get Ups
3b. Super Girl Push UPs

4a. Mtn. Climbers (added them because I hate them and wanted to push myself)
4b. Hanging Knee Raises (ditto above)

5a. Ninja Jump Tucks
5b. Break Dance Push Ups


Fat Fighter Wo from bodyrock.tv:http://www.bodyrock.tv/2010/06/11/fat-fighter-workout/.  I did 5 rounds of each exercise instead of 3 to make the workout longer.

Booty Fat Meltdown from bodyrock.tv with modifications.  The interval sections were performed at 10/30, 6xs each.

1. Push Up w/side jump
2. Plank Elbos Knee Tuck

3min Tukish Get Ups with 10lb weigth

3. Jump Squat
4. Alternating Side Crunch

3min TGU

5. 10 high knees/ get down/ups
6. TRX Atomic Crunches

3 min TGU

This workout wasn't too hard except for the atomic crunches.  However, it was quite long: 27 minutes.


The Push Up Workout from fitmiss.tv.  As always, I really liked this wo.  I also added in an extra round of exercises before the 3 minutes of knee slaps and get down get ups.  I did 3 rounds of 10 Snowboarder Jumps and 10 Swimmer Push Ups.  This increased my workout time to 16:54.  I also added on 6, 5, and 4 reps of pull ups at the end.


A me-designed 10/40 interval workout.  Each exercise was done 3xs before moving on to the next exercise, making the entire workout about 17 1/2 minutes long. 

1. Dyanamic Squats
2. Dive Bombers
3. Jump Lunges
4. Tricep Dips
5. Ninja Jump Tucks
6. Maltese Sit Ups
7. Roll Back/Jump Ups

The first 5 exercises were tough, but the workout slowed up with exercises 6 and 7.  I liked this format quite a bit and the time flew by!


The Extremem Fat Fighter Wo from myomytv.com.  This one was tough and I'm quite proud of myself because I did the TRX rollouts the hard way (facing the anchor point) for the first time ever. 

1. Burpess w/o push up- 20
2. TRX Push Ups 10
3. Sumo Prisoner Squats with Jump 20
4. TRX Roll Out 20
5. Evil Jumps 20
6. Explosive Push Ups 5
7. Hamstring Curls 20
8. Side V-Crunches 10/side

Repeat the entire circuit 3xs.  This workout took 19:05.


Sexy Hot Cool wo.  http://adifferentchaos.blogspot.com/2010/05/fitness-challenge-day-20.html


Another couplet style wo, 5 minutes for each couplet.

1a. Triple Sumo Squat Jumps 10
1b. Strong Core Exercise 10

2a. Plank to Pike Oblique Jump 10
2b. Ball Hand to Foot Transfer 10

3a. Side Jump Lunges 10
3b. Seated Bicycles 10

4a. Super Low Oblique Hop Squats 10
4b. Toe Touches 10



Fall Into Fitness from fitmiss.tv.  I did 6 rounds instead of 5.  Some really great, interesting, new exercises.  Really kept me thinking and concentrating as well as working my body.  I did 6, 5, and 4 pull ups when I was done.

1. Walk Out Burpees 5
2. Read Lunge/ 1-Leg Squat Thrusts 5/side
3. Half Burpee w/ alternating Knee to Elbow  5
4. Squat Jumps 10

This workout took 15:29.


Finally, today's workout was the newest myomytv.com workout. 

1. Squat – Reverse Lunge and Kick Combo (right)
2. Squat – Reverse Lunge and Kick Combo (left)
3. Push Up – Squat Thrust – Diagonal Knee Tuck Combo
4. High, Side Step Up (right)
5. High, Side Step Up (left)
6. Bench Jump Overs
7. Two Sumo Squat Jump Burpee Combo
8. Elevated Plank Climber
9. Evil Jumps
10. Mountain Climbers

This one had some fun new combo exercises too.  It was set up to do two rounds of the above circuit at intervals of 1:00minute/25 seconds.  Since this setup makes the workout a bit longer, and I was running short on time, I was tempted to shorten the intervals to a more manageable 15/45 or something similar to make it a nice even 20 minutes (I also considered just skipping the mtn. climbers so I would have an excuse not to do them:) ).  However, I decided to go ahead and do the workout as written and I'm glad I did.  This set-up was a great way to get in a longer workout but still keep the intensity up.
