PT session this morning - lots of mental cardio involving a BOSU. Legs hurt a lot but it was good.
Can' remember exactly what we did but it was tough!

I missed spin at lunch today, which was annoying. I did manage to get to the gym before work though:
Cross Trainer 1 minute sprint intervals - 8 minutes

Side jacknife x 10
Stability ball side raises x 12 (each side)
Two sets.
Am achey from Pump yesterday but not too bad. Considering putting my weights up next week.

Tuesday 26th
Tuesday is Ridiculous day in Bubblesville.
Body Pump:
Warm-up 7.5kg
Squats 12.5 kg
Chest 7.5kg
Glutes, back & hamstrings 12.5kg
Triceps 7.5kg (and a 5kg plate for the last set)
Biceps 7.5kg
Lunges 7.5kg (and 2 x 3kg for the last set)
Shoulders 7.5kg (and 2 x 3kg for the side raises)
Abs 5kg
Then Womens Running Network - 1 hour. We had a few stops but not as many as normal. Ran round Hudson's Field, up the steep part and then down the path in the centre before back to the gym to stretch off.
It was really hard, there were points in Pump where I felt physically sick and thought I might drop my weight. I've missed running club the last two weeks through illness, and I missed Pump last week. Am glad I stuck it out and did both this week, I felt pretty good when I'd finished!
(sore today though!)

Sunday 24th
I actually managed to get to the gym today...
BOSU squats x 20
double heel tap/reverse crunch - 2 x 10
hamstring crunches - 2 x 10
I opened the front door over my toe this morning and it's not too happy with me so I skipped the lower body workout I was meant to do (naughty!) and just did upper body and abs.
Stability ball push up (ball under shins) - 12, 10, 8, 6 (I'm a wuss!)
Side lunge/tricep rope pull down - 7.5kg x 12
Squat/rope pull - 20kg x 12
4 sets of those
Then 1 minute sprint intervals on the cross trainer at level 5, for 6 minutes
Stability ball full crunch x 12
Side jacknife x 8 (getting better at not falling on my ass for this!)
Stability ball side raises x 12 (each side)
then I stretched and faffed a bit before coming home.
Hoping to attempt another Gym Junkies workout this afternoon.

Saturday 23rd
I got up too late to go to the gym - it would have been horrendously crowded by 10am. So I stayed in and did a workout from GymJunkies which almost broke me...
Squats x 25
Hopscotch - 30 seconds max effort
Push Ups x 25
Hopscotch - 30 seconds max effort
You're meant to do 4-8 rounds of that. I managed 4 and decided that was enough, considering I had a hangover and it was really bloody tough!
I had intended to go to the gym in the afternoon... but I'm fairly rubbish and was distracted by the pub.

Friday 22nd
I finished work at 12 today. The plan was to head straight to the gym and do my program before Spin at 1.15.
What actually happened was I got talking to a girl in the changing rooms who has lost 15.5 stone since last time I saw her. I didn't even recognise her. Very inspiring.
When I eventually wandered up the stairs to the gym...
Cross trainer - 1 minute sprint intervals - 6 minutes (level 5)
Spin class - 30 minutes (really tough today!)
Stability ball crunches - 2 x 12
Side jacknife - 2 x 8
Stability ball side extensions - 2 x 12 (each side)
am off out to a wedding reception tonight. Need to try really hard not to get plastered!
