I've decided I should stop being lazy and try to get my butt into shape over the next month or so before I have to start running up and down the wards. I thought about it for a good month or two and am now actually doing something about it. Isn't that usually how it works?! You plan out all of these amazing workouts in your mind and then don't end up doing anything; kinda like Pinterest! LOL (I, however, have made it a point to try quite a few things that I have pinned thus far and have been happy with ALMOST all of them).
So in my quest to get into shape, I downloaded Shaun T's Insanity series. I cheated a little by doing the Fit Test a few days before actually beginning the workouts, but that was mainly because after JUST the fit test I was so sore! The two people that he has demonstrating the moves made me a little angry with how many reps they were able to finish in the allotted time period. Some days being competitive is REALLY annoying, mainly when I'm losing! Today was my first REAL workout day. Plyometrics Cardio Circuit. For those of you that don't know what plyometrics are, it's basically a lot of jumping moves. Halfway through, I was already drenched in sweat and gasping for air. Ugh, I knew I was out of shape and was prepared to get my butt kicked, but it was pretty brutal. I can see it now, when I wake up in the morning and roll over to get out of bed, I'm going to regret every jump and lunge I did today! Let's hope for continued success with Day 2! I will keep you posted.
