Turbo, Yoga, and Dance

Monday, I didn't do anything since I had to work all day, plus I wasn't feeling good, but Tuesday I did an awesome workout doing turbo kick at the gym. The workout consists of kicks and punches, similar to turbo jam and then we did a lot of leg and arm workouts, plus ab stuff. Then yesterday I woke up very sore! I went to yoga which was amazing as always! The instructor is just so good at what she does! I love that she challenges us to do things that most yoga classes don't do. Oh ya, before yoga I ran 1 mile to warm up. Last night was dance. A lot of the time we focused on our Christmas show since we'll be performing in just a few weeks!!! It definitely is a good workout though with all of the stuff I do in it! Can't wait to perform!!!!

More Turbo Kick!!

Today I went to Turbo Kick at the gym. I felt good doing it other than the fact I didn't eat before :( Made me a little nauseous towards the end. Definitely Not going to do that again!! In the class we also did weights for our arms and Ab stuff. It is such an upbeat class and I love it :)

Friday and Saturday

Wow, I am one sore woman!! A very good sore though! On Friday, I did some more insanity which was the power workout. All of the workouts are very similar, but have different moves and they make you sweat, work, and sweat some more!! Then Saturday, I was able to go for a run in the morning. I think I did about 2 miles. It was so stinkin' cold though!! Not liking the weather change!! Later, I did the cardio workout from Insanity. Oh my heck!!! So so crazy!! I hate it but love it!! So week one has gone, but ended up being good for me. I hope to through more P90x in next week :) Now, a day of rest!!

Insanity's Insane!!!!

Tuesday night, I did the cardio abs from Insanity. Those workouts are crazy, but so fun!! I love that I can switch it up with whatever else I do in the week. Yesterday, I couldn't do much in the morning since I was watching my cousin's kids, but I wasn't too worried though because of my 3 hours at dance. The first hour is always technique where we work on our flexibility, strength, turns, leaps, you name it! It is so much fun, plus an awesome workout! After we did cardio and strength where we started at 100 and went down to 10 doing each set something different, like 100 jumping jacks, 90 seconds of sprint runs, 80 seconds of plank, 70 squats, 60 seconds against the wall, 50 sit-ups, 40 switchers, 30 tricep pushups, 20 regular pushups, and 10 roll and jump ups (don't know the name.) Let me just say it was intense!! I feel so bad after cause I am so sweaty from the hour and a half, that to dance with the guys for our Xmas show is pretty embarrassing! As long as I don't stink right?? So yes, then the last 90 minutes is our Xmas show stuff. We perform in just a few weeks!! I am getting way excited about it!! There's a whole dance segment in between though that I am going non stop with partnering, to dancing, fuetes, leaps, and more partnering! Love every minute of it though!!! So like I said, with all the work I do Wednesday nights, if I don't do anything during the day, no need to feel guilty!! Dance is my workout for the day!! The bad thing though is that it leaves me exhausted on Thursdays where I don't want to do anything!! Can't let that from stopping me!! Once I am done with work tonight, I will be doing another Insanity workout. Let's hope I don't pass out!!

Toughen Me Up!!

I've been slackin' with blogging on here, not so much working out, but blogging! It did just hit me though that in just over 2 months, I will be doing the Tough Mudder in Pheonix and I SO need to toughen up again! Ok, so maybe not much, but still, I feel I could always be more fit! STORY OF MY LIFE!!! Anyways, so starting today, I will be blogging every workout because it helps me to get me motivated and stay consistent. I do workout about 3-4 times a week, but I have to push harder now! Get focused and all!!
I was thinking of doing p90x again, but just downloaded the insanity dvds, so what I will be doing is a mixture of both, since I do love p90x, plus any workouts that I do at the gym or at dance.

Last night, I did Plyo (My Fave) which wasn't too bad considering how my knees have been. I just love how sweaty I get doing it! Gross, but such a good feeling!! Today, I went to the gym and did Turbo Kick. I really pushed myself!! Such a fun class!! When I got home, I decided to go for a run. It's cold as heck outside, but I love running out there. I only did about a mile, but better than nothing I guess. The bad thing about the weather though is that I can't stop coughing after!! Such a pain. Tomorrow, I will probably go for a run again and then have my lovely 3 hours of getting my booty kicked at dance!! I love it so much though!!!!

I am really looking forward on doing a Tough Mudder again! It'll be a whole different experience with the terrain and location, but it will be intense as ever I'm sure!! Wish me luck :)

Back on a schedule

So, a few things have gone on since my last post and goal I made. I was planning on doing the Halloween Half this month which I was really looking forward to, but i decided not to because of my right knee which is not cooperating right now :( I'm really bummed about it, but would rather dance and perform then running and me not being able to dance for Christmas. Plus, I have another Tough Mudder to look forward to in January and I have to be strong for that! What I am doing starting tomorrow though, is P90X again. I never really finished the last time I did it, so I'm starting over. I am looking to get Insanity which is really good, but till then, I'm getting myself back on schedule!! I have been working and dancing quite a bit, but feel like I need to get on a routine again. It always makes it easier to accomplish my workouts. So, back to good ol' P90X!! Let's pray my knee will be nice to me!!
