Day 16 - Pure Cardio & Cardio Abs


Day 16

ANKLE NO BUENO

I rubbed Bengay all over but for some reason my ankle is feeling weak again...no real support keeping it secure. I need to find my other brace. My left ankle is starting to act up again so I only got through 3/4 of the workout. 

PURE CARDIO 


I can't do switch kicks because they hurt my ankle. I can do a few back to back but then I gotta just do regular high kicks with no jumping. Overall my body is just not ready to jump back in again. I still dance and workout but I need to recover a better way. 

Cardio Abs

Ok so I totally did cardio abs with my mom...it wasn't too too bad but I got Hip Hop Abs too so what what!  Double my workouts now. So I did Pure Cardio one day, Hip hop Abs Cardio the next day and Hip Hop Abs Cardio and Cardio Abs today. Mind you it is a couple days since I did Pure Cardio. My arms were burning more than my abs but I could feel my abs working so yes Hip Hop Abs work. You should get it. Well, I'm behind in Insanity but on board with Hip Hop Abs so I'll try to catch up until then PEACE OUT!

Day 15 - Plyometric Cardio Circuit

Day 15
3/4 DONE OH WELL
 
I had to get ready for my 1pm shift so I didn't get to finish it all. Mom did, but I got most of it. It's all good. I was on my feet all day pretty much so it made up for the 2 rounds of basketball jumps sequence. I just got home from a busy day but I'll tell you that I have become stronger and lazier at the same time lol! I can't wait to do the Hip Hop Abs because I'm going to need something else to keep my mind going. I get bored easily. But anywho, looks like Pure Cardio and Cardio Abs manana...so until then PEACE OUT!

Day 14 - Fit Test #2

Day 14
HOLY COW!

Alright so my mom and I did the Fit Test for the 2nd time. I am still out of breath but we both improved from the first week. Man I really pushed it this time around. I was going to try to do another workout but I'd be really killing myself if I tried so I will rest the rest of the night. Here are my results:

RESULTS (Day 1)  (Day 14) 
Switch Kick = 104 115
Power Jacks = 48 71 
Power Knee = 106 116
Power Jumps = 36 43
Globe Jumps = 11 16
Suicide Jumps = 16 18
Push Up Jacks = 9 25
Knee Ins Plank= 40 60

IMPROVEMENT

So as you see I improved a lot and some areas and some in the other areas. Switch Kicks: I had an 11% improvement. Power Jacks: I had a 23% improvement. Power Knee: I had a 10% improvement. Power Jumps: I had a 7% improvement. Globe Jumps: I had a 5% improvement. Suicide Jumps: I didn't improve too too much but got a 2% improvement.  Push Up Jacks: This surprised me. I guess I am gaining my abs and arm strength. I have a 16% improvement. Knee Ins Plank: I had a 20% improvement. So I improved the most of the power jacks and not as much on the Suicide Jumps. So hey not too bad for doing this for 2 weeks. Can't wait for the results of the next Fit Test after another 2 weeks. YAY!! Until then PEACE OUT!!!

Day 13 - Pure Cardio & Cardio Abs

Day 13

MY BUTT!!

My butt hurts. I just did cardio abs for the first time. yeah its pretty hard on the knees and not to mention my butt hurts more than my abs it should be called cardio butt not cardio abs. And the twists, I do that with my kids so its not like I'm doing anything that I'm not already doing. Oh well, gotta love the ab work though it doesn't take too long lol... well anywho it wasnt too bad now off to salsa rehearsals I go.

Day 12 - Cardio Power & Resistance

Day 12
1 DOWN 2 TO GO

Yay! I did it! But this is only the beginning. I have to make up for my injury. I still need to do Pure Cardio and Cardio Abs. Oh man I hope I'll be able to do it. I'm going to get a Jamba Juice for my mom and I since I have a coupon. By one get one free. YAY! :) I can't wait. Then I'm going to come home, relax, read my book and relax some more. 

CARDIO POWER & RESISTANCE


I think the only thing that was hard to do was keep my butt down on the moving push ups. But other than that I feel great I feel my body getting strong. I'm saying no to all Shaun T's questions but I'm still going. "Are you ready?" "no.." "One more set, alright?!" "no" But I'm still going as strong as I can. Ankle doing better...put a brace on just in case. Still doing it not giving up! Pray for me to keep going. Til later...PEACE OUT!!

Day 11 - Cardio Recovery

Day 11
NOT TOO BAD

The cardio recovery wasn't as bad as it was the first day. My quads don't hurt as much. So glad because I have to do a salsa competition tonight and I need my legs. I am about 2 days behind because of my injury so I'll have to catch up and not have a rest day. But yeah mom did cardio recovery with me today. That was cool well, til tomorrow PEACE OUT! WOO HOO TO DAY OFF!!!

Injured

Strained/Sprained

It looks like I over worked my left ankle and I had to teach my dance classes and my private lesson. So I did not do Cardio Recovery so I'm going to try and do it today as well as Cardio Resistance & Power just to make up for it but I'm probably going to have to take it easy. The last thing I want to do is sprain it even more. Yesterday, I was limping, last night I put Bengay, iced it and wrapped it. Today I'm wearing a brace and hopefully I'll be able to both workouts if not I'll attempt to do at least the Cardio Recovery. And tomorrow do double. So we'll see. Until then, pray for healing for me and peace out.
