A partial day.

Today was a half day.

Half a workout team,
half a workout,
half the energy...

This has been because I have been getting about half the sleep I need for the past week.

Insomnia is a beast.

Still, I wanted to get in at least most of a crossfit workout today so I did it at 9pm.

The workout for today can be found here.

It was late and I was to tired to do the whole thing so I made some adjustments.

Instead of an 800 meter run (it is below zero outside) I did 3 minutes of cardio INSIDE.
Also, I did 3 rounds instead of 5.

Time: 12:27

I am also trying to get back into the habit of doing abs every night before bed.
Again, instead of doing 25 reps of every move I only did 10 and ended up doing about 8 minutes of abs.

Good night!

Buns of Steel

So confession: I've skipped working out the past couple of days... Unless you count biking practically everywhere, then I worked out all day! Anyway, to make up for my (and my roommates) slacking, I decided to put us through a fairly simple, yet painful workout. Here's the workout:

50 Medicine Balls (yes, i don't know the correct name!)
30 crunches
50 lunges
30 crunches
50 lunges
30 crunches
50 medicine balls
1:30 bridge
1:00 yoga bridge (question? ask my roommate Jessica)
Total: 100 medicine balls, 90 crunches, 100 lunges, and 2:30 of pain :)

After the workout we decided that I shouldn't be the only one contributing to the workout regime (I told them I wasn't trying to kill them). So we split up the days of the week so that every one of my roommates is in charge of a workout for one of the days, leaving us two days to do our own individual workouts and leaving Sunday for a relaxing yoga session. I did make an executive decision that we would be doing lunges every day of the week for the next few weeks, so it'll be super painful, but afterwards we'll have BUNS OF STEEL!!! So, in other words, this months goal is to work on our butt and thighs. Fun fun fun!
