Well, two more weeks have passed since the Biggest Mover has started and the workouts have been getting harder. But the sad part is, the other day my trainer sid that they're only going to get better - which means "more intense"!
She really loves these things called "speed intervals". For one minute we're running/jogging on the treadmill at a 6% incline, then for the next minute we drop to a 0% incline but increase the speed. We do these three times and each time you keep increasing your speed, so the very last set you're going your fastest! We've also been doing a few things that I'm not a huge fan of (but am doing them anyways!), like burpies and mountain climbers. After a while, my thighs and legs are killing me.
On top of our workouts with our trainer, she wants us to get an extra three hours of cardio in a week. I'm thinking that this past week I may of went a little overboard with this homework assignment. Granted, on my training day's that's all I did....but on my non-training day's, I did go a little crazy. In three day's I did the following workouts: Group Step (at 5:45am!), 3 Group Groove classes (opted out of the 4th one), Group Power, Pilates (awesome core workout) and a half an hour on the elipitcal. I don't know about you but I'm thinking that I made my homework assignment. Let's see how long I can keep this up, oh and that's not including that I didn't make it to one of my classes due to the fact that I set my alarm clock for PM instead of AM...did to do better this week!
On a plus side, in one month I managed to loose 6.6lbs and 10 inches. Two more months left of the Biggest Mover, who knows...I might be in shape in the very end for the marathon after all!
