Bodyrock.tv: You Push Me Workout

I was so pumped up when doing today's exercise, as if someone pushed me to my max.
Just like the title of today's workout. :)

Workout breakdown:
Set timer for 10 sec off /50 sec on for 15 rounds (15 minutes total)
1. Kick Over and Knee Raise (I did jump tuck instead) 18-14-15

2. Side Lunge Jump 44-35-34

3. Reptile Push Ups 14-14-14

4. Sandbag Clean and Squat (I used 20lbs backpack) 12-12-13

5. High Knees Jump Rope (no rope, I broke it so only regular high knees) 130-144-163



Phew, at the end of the workout, I was gasping for air and couldn't even talk, until I stretched and cooled down. I love today's workout!

Bodyrock.tv: Tik Tok Exercise Challenge

I woke up with a scratchy throat (damn cold germs just don't wanna get out from my body) which almost made me wanted to skip today's challenge. Actually every morning I always feel this way but once I warmed up and got into the workout, I didn't feel like to quit.

Today's challenge was a combination of time challenge exercise combo and 4 minutes interval high knees jump rope.

Exercise combo:
1. Do a monkey push up
2. Jump tuck
3. Get into crab position
4. Do 10 kick up

Complete description, instructions, pictures can be found here.

Workout breakdown:
1. 10 sets exercise combo (4:00)
2. 4 min. interval high knees jump rope (10 sec off /20 sec on for 8 rounds)
3. 10 sets exercise combo (3:40)
4. 4 min. interval high knees jump rope (10 sec off /20 sec on for 8 rounds)
5. 10 sets exercise combo (3:26)

Total workout time: 19:07



I'm not sure if I got a little stronger or perhaps I didn't do today's exercise challenge hard enough. It seems like I beat Zuzana's time in all the exercise combo part. For one thing I know, when I did my kick up, my legs weren't all straight up - more like 45 degrees, but I did it as fast as I could while engaging my core.
