Firstly, when I was doing 55, just like yesterday I did rope jumping in between the sets instead of resting. This is how the first part of the workout went:
1 squat, 10 lateral raises, 60 rope jumpsBut the awesome part? I hit the mark of doing 100 jumps with rope in one go! That was the glory moment for tonight. So that's the checkpoint worth noting, from now on, that's what I will be aiming for.
2 squat, 9 lateral raises, 60 rope jumps
...
10 squat, 1 lateral raises, 60 rope jumps
Then the circuit:
10 Side-to-side jumpsNow the purpose of the last ten exercises was not to do muscle building of those areas that are targeted by those exercises, it wasn't even to get stronger, basically I had no 'building' goal in mind. The goal was just to do any exercise, and since I was too out of breath and un-creative to do any other cardio, I just did these.
10 mountain climbers
10 side bends (for obliques)
10 goodmornings
10 alternate dumbbell press
Oh, and my workout has naturally grown to 35-40 minutes. That doesn't mean I am doing it slowly, though it may be possible, but I think that's because I am doing more. More reps in some cases, and completing the sets in other cases.
So that's all for now. Oh, and my made an account on Fitrocity! I don't know how many points I am gonna get for this one, I got 50 points just for logging ten minutes of rope jumping.
Now, that's really all for now :)
You are doing such a great job!
ReplyDeleteI pushed myself with the Pilates yesterday. Completed all the three areas, whereas, I was doing two areas per day. I am still struggling with the walk and jog routine. Have not reached the target yet! :/
Look, the first target is to be Regular. And Just stick to it! It's easy, and tricky to reach. Just be on your watch, don't get distracted with other targets.
