Exercises that were tough
:: Level 3 drills ~ 16 push-ups! Had to eventually do knee push-ups @__@
:: Side push-ups ~ Attempted, but did not do. Shoulder hurt probably from awkward positioning. I should try it while not doing the workout to get the form correct
:: Balance push-ups ~ o_o tough!
LOL All of those were push-up exercises.
Fun fun fun exercises
:: Sprints and lunges ~ FUN!
:: Pogo (standing one-legged stance, arms overhead, bend forward and touch floor/toes and extend back up) ~ I like these. butt burns, but pretty fun
:: Push-up Jumps ~ Tough but fun. Start in a lowered push-up position, then jump up so toes and fingertips are toughing
:: Lunge to one-legged hop with knee up ~ similar to pogo, works butt and like it
:: 8 power knees + 4 diamond jumps ~
Tomorrow is Rest Day!
Was able to catch up today! That means I'm back on schedule!

Day 40: Max Interval Circuit
WHOA. Day 40!!! Who would have thought?
I still am technically a day behind. I'm thinking of resting an hour or so, then doing Max Interval Plyometrics... I'll be back on schedule if I do that. But I'm tired?
Not really tired, still feeling stomach paings. =( A little headache too? It's been like this the past couple days... probably the combination of stomach not feeling well and poor sleep schedule. So we'll see if I do the second workout today.
Max Interval Circuit
A little challenging overall. Maybe the fatigue. Individual exercises were easier... second time around, so I have an idea of what to do... not as awkward as the first time around.
Warm-up
It was easier overall. I was able to push through the entire workout, but during the third set, wasn't able to speed up as the workout asks. Next week will probably be a little better as I grow accustomed to it. At least my knees up with arms extended wasn't so weak today! Knees were up!
Exercises that gave me trouble
:: Ski Abs + Push-up jacks + In out abs + Oblique push-ups ~ wah. noodles arms.
:: Full Body Drills ~ I did my best to keep up... but so exhausting. My arms were just jello at times. =(
:: Hi-lo Jabs ~ legs were tired! I pushed through majority of these... but just tough!
:: Table Top Switch Kicks ~ left bicep bothered today. these are just tough. Mostly position for me.
Exercises that were fun
:: Sprints and 4 jump lunges ~ First exercise of the workout. I like the sprints. The lunges do get tiring, but! just gotta push through and had fun while doing it
:: Football circles and cross jacks ~ FUN! I like fast feet and I like cross jacks.
:: 4 hooks + 4 low hooks + 4 jump ropes ~ tiring!!! but so much fun!
Maybe a second workout later... we'll see. Still debating!

Day 39: Max Recovery
Zzzz.... (＝◇＝;)
*tired*
Friday --> Disneyland Halloween Event
Saturday --> Wedding
Sunday --> Baby shower
Weekend finally over! Time to rest! I was so exhausted today! Body is also exhausted from recovering from my upset stomach and the shock of new workouts. So today's workout was burning! My stomach hurt through it... I don't know what's going on with it. It doesn't like food very much right now.
Hopefully it'll get better soon. Onto workout notes!
Max Recovery
This is a long workout! It felt longer than usual because I was so mentally exhausted.
:: Warm-up ~ A bit confusing. If you don't watch the workout prior and know what's going on... you can get confused and go the wrong way. Directions are given pretty quickly. It's not fun to crane your neck to see the television screen. Sometimes Shaun T doesn't tell you which direction to go "left or right?" So I'll change directions... then oops! I was supposed to be going the same direction! Next time it should be easier.
Have I ever mentioned I don't like push-ups? My shoulder usually starts to hurt. Since it's recently recovered... my chest/shoulder/arms are pretty weak still. It is getting stronger... but, still weak! So doing so many repetitions of push-ups feels uncomfortable after a while.
:: Push-ups with elbows back ~ these killed! Started out okay... then just got so fatigued that I was moving so slowly. Then I had to take a break. Toughness! Boo to plank positions and push-ups!!!
:: High plank - low plank ~ I actually liked these. A familiar exercise to what I've previously done. Again, after a while, right shoulder started getting bothered. Took a break and started up again.
:: Wide-squats w/ pulses + side groin stretch holds ~ These were killer! Quads were so tired. They super burned and it was tough! Was able to push through most... of the repetitions, but I'm sure my squats weren't as low as they should have been.
That's all I can remember! Tired! Must rest!
Tomorrow is Max Interval Circuit... and maybe some Max Interval Plyometrics! If I do both tomorrow... then I'll be back on schedule!
