Turbo Fire Week 1 Day 3/4

Rested on Wednesday (3)
Picked it back up on Thursday, Today, 4th workout. Schedule said to do Fire 30 class, and Stretch 10.
I did this class on Monday also, and I think that I did a lot better in form this time around. I find it easier to not watch her and listen instead because then I try to keep up with her, and I just cannot go that fast yet. I did a good job in my opinion and I really worked hard though. I even was able to work all the way through the tire first drills and continue on to the next exercise. I did not finish the last set of 7 minutes, because she doesn't teach this very much, she just gets you fired the entire time, so I got lost, and confused. Next time I am going to push through stop after 5 minutes before end, instead of 7 minutes. I think the moves will be easier the third time around for sure.
I added the Curcit class, which was a lot of fun. I wrote down what I could do, and what I can push for later.
1) Warming up using 5lb
2) 12lb all reps
3) 5lbs all reps
4) 6 knee push ups with perfect form
5) 5lbs 10 reps
6) 16lbs 6 reps
7) barley got legs at 45degrees, using 5lbs, 16 reps (this was for abs)
8) 12lbs 7 reps
3 Extreme lunges 12lbs
3 extreme prosteriafly 5lbs
Did last exercise using 5lbs of 12 reps
3 extreme push ups on knees, perfect form.

I also did abb 10 video, but stopped after last 3 minutes, because I lost my form.

Yes i am sore!
Woot!
Cruise, here I come!

Turbo Fire Week 1 Day 2

Tuesday

I was very tired today. It was rough. I gave in a did a couple more shots of espresso than I usually do. I got home, and make to the workout though. 

The schedule called for Hiit 15 class and stretch 10 class. I did this entire video. Near the end I became pretty week and just ended up doing jumping until the last 30 second fire drill ended. The only thing I'm frustrated with is that I cannot do the move where she has you spread your body into a jumping jack and jumping up int the air at the same time, because the ceiling is too low and I'll hit my hands. I feel just jumping, and trying to get my knees to my chest is a good enough modification. I really enjoyed this video. 

I aslo added Tone 30 class like I added the sculpt 30 yesterday. I chose to use the yellow band, instead of the purple or the red. I feel the yellow is in between those to when it comes to resistance. I thought it was almost too easy, but that may be because I was comparing it to the Red band, the first time. I chose to go to the yellow because I wasn't really sore today. I was a little sore when I started to warm up in the beginning of the hiit class, but that wasn't enough in my opinion. I think i'm going to go ahead and use the yellow band so that I can perfect my form and make sure I'm doing all the reps. I do twist it, and double it up in a couple moves, because I do want to challenge myself. I honestly have never been very good at challenging myself, so I'm really excited to be accomplishing all this and succeeding. 

I love how encouraging Charlene is! I think she is smart and she does a good job at describing the form and getting to hit the right muscles. Its nice. 

I also did the ab 10 class which i should have done on Monday, so that I could do it tomorrow. If I am not sore in my abs, I will do this class again tomorrow. Its suggested that I only workout the abs every other day, just like other muscles. So far. I'm cheating slightly, until this month changes from just cardio to cardio and other videos. 

I actually see results, and I love that I concentrate on my muscles. I feel like i am getting stronger and I'm really excited about it. 

Turbo Fire Week 1 Day 1

Monday: After the first week being pretty intense, and feeling my way through the workouts, i ended up taking thursday - Sunday off to give myself a rest. I found the workout schedule. I added to it based on my ability. I feel alot more in the game than I did last week and I've picked up where i left off. The first day says to do fire 30 class and stretch 10 class. I did most of the fire 30 class. Most moves were no graceful and it was hard, but i pushed through. i didn't finish the last 7 minutes though. I then decided to go ahead and do the sculpt 30 class, because its complete-able for me, meaning i should keep doing it. It uses resistance bands, and I used the purple last time i did this class, but this time tried the red. The red is too easy in my opinion. But i'm going to continue with the red since I began with it. Same for the next 3 days. I'm gonna do the other two toning and circuit classes like last week, but i'm going to use the red band. When I do the circuit on thursday, I'm gonna be sure to mark down what I'm using weight wise. I probably wont use the resistance bands or those though. Next monday when i start this process all over again, I'm going to use the yellow band and hopefully that will be the right resistance for me. Ankle sorta hurts, but its just sore. i think this might actually get me to start strengthening it. No more excuses not to build muscle. I'm always so afraid of it and I don't want to be. I actually already see results in my body. How crazy is that?! Imagine in 5 months what I'll look like. I prayed before I came down here to have God help me with this though, to keep me energized. I was really tired on the bus, and kept falling asleep.
I think sometimes I forget to count my accomplishments and dwell on how much I haven't accomplished. I think reading a book a week, Applying for jobs, and researching scholarships, eating well, and getting in a hour long workout everyday, are really good accomplishments. AMEN! Thank you jesus!
