Day 10 and I'm in uncharted territory, since I took my Round 2 "pause" after Day 9 a few weeks ago. Today was Plyometric Cardio Circuit and I recall this was one of my favorites before. Apparently the "pause" took its toll on my shoulders because I felt really weak doing the push-ups, planks, plank sprints, plank ski abs, and plank "in and outs" (are you sensing a theme?) I could not keep up on many of the moves. I don't think I was ever able to do every rep of every set of this stuff, but I've definitely backpedaled a bit. Looking at the positive, I know I can do better, and will do better, as the program continues. Now don't get me wrong, my shoulders aren't sore or in any pain like they were in Round 1. They just felt weak. I was a bit sore overall this morning, mostly in my legs, after pushing hard the past 2 days, preceded by a 2 week trip to Asia where I only worked out once. So I have nobody to blame but myself!
Today I burned 665 calories, with my heart rate peaking at 181 and averaging 150. I remember this workout always being a bit less calories because it's more about strength than cardio.
I weighed myself this morning, and I'm approaching a pretty significant milestone. More on that once it happens in the next few days or next week (depending on how "good" I am this weekend!)
Til tomorrow!
