Well to start off with I was kinda worried this morning when I woke up this morning that I would be horribly sore from the workout the day before and amazingly I was a little stiff but not to sore. That changed as the day went on. I noticed more and more soreness and stiffness in my shoulders and legs the longer I sat a work. I think part of the problem was that I had to sit all 12 hours of my shift. For those of you who don't know I work in the ICU and often I am caring for PTs doing different tasks throughout the day from drawing labs to helping give meds to cleaning ect but some days I have to sit TELE which means I sit and look at a computer with up to 32 patients heart rates on it. Today I worked Tele which means that after my hard workout yesterday I sat for 12 hrs at work. Probably not the best idea but I didn't really have a choice.
Now about today's workout. Power Resistance training. I have to say I liked this workout more then yesterdays mostly because it was easier for me to do. Not to say that the workout was any easier then yesterday but I understood the moves better. This one had lots of jump squats and push-ups needless to say by the end my butt felt like jello my thighs are smoked and my shoulders burning. Again my average heart rate was 170-190. This workout seemed to go by faster and I felt better today then I did yesterday I felt like I could breath better and like I could do more. I know its only the second workout and improvements can't be made that fast but I really did feel a lot better during this workout. At the end John and I tried a recovery drink and we shall see if it helps with the soreness. Tomorrow with be an interesting day I'm going to do one Insanity workout with my friend Sam in the morning and then another tomorrow evening with John. I will be sure to tell you all how it goes.-- Jill
So I was running low on motivation earlier today so I packed up Thing 1 and Thing 2 and proceeded to golds gym to find some motivation. Well I found it there and I felt as though the tank was only about 3/8s full when I left that place. I did a good core work out mixed in with some legs. Like Jill's double session tomorrow, I've got one of my own. Today's work out was pretty good. A mix of squat jumps V push ups, and front kicks with some other craziness mixed in, comprised our work out for tonight. Yes my sister would've just had a seizure if she read that whole run-on sentence fragment. Regardless of my epic comprehension of the English language, I'll say this. After all this I should be in decent shape for worlds. After work tomorrow I'll be hitting up my 5pm MMA session followed by my 1hr BJJ class then to finish up the ball buster day I've got insanity with Jill. I love how Jill and I do these crazy work outs then watch Man vs Food. This always presents a contentious situation.--John
