Body Blitz in Just 49 Minutes

without comments

Wow, today was a much better workout than the one I forced myself to do Thursday night. Today I did the Turbulence Training Beginner Bodyweight A and Beginner Interval A workouts. Workout A includes two more exercises than Workout B which I did Thursday and today I did it in less time. I did forget to do my stretching. I’ll have to do that later on this afternoon.

I felt very energized considering I had to work until 1130 last night and got up at 6AM. I did my workout starting at about 8:50AM today. Perhaps I have more energy in the morning that the evenings? Even if that is true,  my schedule is such right now that during the week evening workouts are the only ones I can fit in.

My arms are still pumped and a bit sore from the combination of the work I did last night and today’s workout. The biggest challenge in today’s workout was the planks I did as part of my warmup. What are the  most challenging exercises in your fitness routine?

No Planned Traditional Exercise

I didn’t get any planned, traditional exercise yesterday. I walked a couple of blocks, probably 4 total, to get lunch. Later in the night I helped move a 2004 pound disk array at work. This involved a lot fo walking around, moving heavy floor tiles in the raised floor of the data center, climbing up and down a ladder to run fiber cables, etc. So, this morning I do feel like I got a workout. I will workout today. I know I was up and moving around for more than 30 minutes which is my goal for days when I’m not doing a planned Turbulence Training workout.
