We have survived the first 3 days- half way to our 6 days! On the 7th day, we will rest. Our bodies ache like we have been thrown around in a washing machine. Everything hurts. When I want to cross my legs, I have to life my leg up with my hands and place it over the other leg. I don't think I've had a hurt like this since the first time I did Bikram yoga. Speaking of yoga...tomorrow, Day 4 is Yoga. I'm so excited about yoga, but very nervous about the intensity of the yoga and how my body will feel by day 5.
Quick recap- Day 2: Plyometrics. The most intense work out yet. A series of jumps and foot movements working solely the legs. If you want to jump higher, run faster, last longer on the field you have to have strong legs.
Day 3: Arms and Shoulders & Ab Riper X. We worked out biceps and triceps. My arms feel like jello and I'm lucky if I can lift my purse to put it on my shoulder! :) The ab workout at the end was brutal. Jahon did his in the morning after our regular workout, but due to my work schedule I had to do my abs this evening (before dinner). Pretty much the worst and most painful 15 minutes of my life (b/c I haven't experiences labor yet).
Some may ask...why put your body through this torture? Others might tell us to quit or stop.
Why- because it's the best feeling when you power through an hour workout and I can high-five the sexy stud next to me- my husband, my support, my workout buddy. The feeling after a good workout stays with you all day. We are less tired and have more energy. And no we will not quit...we set a goal. We will complete it. And at day 90, when we finish, our bodies should be in great shape. And that is enough to keep us going.
