Tuesday: I did my Spartacus 1.5 workout AKA Functional Spartacus Workout. For those of you just tuning in, here's the skinny: each exercise lasts 60 seconds, with 15 seconds rest in between each one. Once you do all 10 exercises once, rest for a couple of minutes, then go through it twice more. Pick a moderate to light weight for your dumbbells.
Check it:
I am Spartacus!
If you feel like going for a full minute is too hard, that's fine: start with 30 seconds per exercise. If you need to stop (as I sometimes do), feel free to take a couple of seconds to catch your breath. This is an advanced exercise routine, so start slow.
Now for Wednesday:
I did my little TRX killer workout. I'm starting to build up my muscle and cardiovascular endurance while allowing myself a bit more rest. Here's what I did, 4 times:
TRX Hamstring Curl: 20
TRX Low Row: 20
TRX Lunge (Left): 20
TRX Lunge (Right): 20
TRX Pushup with a Pike: 20
The hardest art: the Pushup. My arms, legs and core were quivering. It was also the only exercise where I had to take some rest during my repetitions. Not ok. Tomorrow I'm really going to work on TRX form to see what kind of pushup would work best for me in the TRX. This workout is also highly advanced, and if you haven't worked with someone who's a TRX Trainer, find one; they'll help you get the most out of this device. Or you can talk to me, as I'm a certified TRX Trainer. No really, it's true...why are you all laughing at me?
Anyway, enjoy this video of the exercises:
I'm such a cute lil' host :-)
That's all until tomorrow, when I'll hopefully have some time! Wish me luck; I began fasting #2 tonight; hopefully it will go better than the last one! Time will tell...
