This was our last week working out with our Biggest Mover trainers and it seems a little bitter sweet. I've enjoyed the past 10 weeks getting my behind into shape, not to mention working out my "Hollywood" thighs! (sorry, I just had to add that in there. It's sort-of become this thing with our team....we just LOVE working our hollywood thighs!)
Tuesday's workout was to say the very least....fun, yes you saw that right....I said the word fun! The weighted vest made it's appearance once again but thankfully we didn't have to wear it for the entire workout this time! We did 4 rounds of one minute each of the following: sumo squat walks while wearing the weighted vest (I was told by one of the members working out that I wasn't squatting low enough, that I needed to go lower.....but then after my workout they came up to me to tell me that there was no way they could do what I just did. Ahh....music to my ears!), suicides with bear crawls back to start point (we did these the entire length of the fitness center), planks with toe touches, burpess with leg lifts, cross punches with weights, assisted pull-ups and inchworms with push ups. Our intermission consisted of the following: jumping jacks, burpess and mountain climbers (and can I just say for the record....when I start hiking again, those mountains better be a breeze after doing these babies!).
Thursday's workout was our last one with our trainer....but as we all stood outside the fitness center waiting for our trainer to arrive, we were told that she would not be joining us today due to the fact she was sick. So we got ourselves a sub!!!! We were lucky enough to have the same trainer to fill in for us like last time and boy, didn't she have a few things planned for us!
We started off with a warm up of some nice cardio, I opted for the Arc machine and then we moved on to our workout that consisted of 4 rounds of one minute each of the following: wall sits with alternating leg lifts, wood chops, mary catherine's, reverse planks, jump squats and then one where we lied on our backs, legs in the air and we had to touch down to the floor switching legs each time.
Today's workout wasn't so bad and things probably would of been much better for me if it wasn't for the fact that right before our workout, I ended up hurting my left ankle. Yes, leave it to me to do something like that. And you would think that I would of been smart enough to say something at the beginning but no, I didn't tell anyone until after we were done.
Today was also weigh in day and with this being the last official weigh in before the finally, I wanted it to be a good one and after last week's weigh in our team alone was only 3lbs away for loosing a grand total of 100lbs. When I stepped on the scale Tuesday morning, I was already down 1lb...so my goal for Thursday's weigh in was to loose another pound. I'm proud to say that goal was met....total weight lost for week 10..... 2.2lbs. That now makes my total for 10 weeks 12.4lbs and since January 2010.... 67.6lbs. I'm now only 2.2lbs away loosing a grand total of 70lbs! And that my friends is my goal....I want to loose these last few pounds by the finale. Wish me luck!
My extra workouts for the week consisted of the following two classes: Group Groove (which I attended only 2 times this week and was happy to say that for one class, I was joined by 3 of my teammates and for the other class, I was joined by 2 of my friends who haven't taken class in forever!) and Group Step (which I now know that I need to eat something right before I take this class, not a pretty picture!). I also made it to the gym 3 times....very proud of myself!
