Bodyrock.tv: Power Girl Workout - 2

Another older workout that I revisited this morning. About a year ago, I couldn't even do Beach Scissors in proper forms plus the push up was super lame as well. Not sure why my Fighter's Lunge numbers were seriously high, but then again, I'm pretty sure they weren't in proper form (not in deep lunge more like scissors lunge).

Set the interval timer for 10 sec off/50 sec on for 12 rounds
Surfer 7.5 - 6.5 (old 6-5)
Beach Scissors (R) 17-15 (old - modified 14-11)
Beach Scissors (L) 12-12 (old- modified 15-15)
Fighter's Lunge (L) 22-18 (old 26-28)
Fighter's Lunge (R) 17-16 (old 26-27)
1-2-3 Push Ups 11 -10 (old 7-8)



After a little break, I did 15 minute Upper body Training using my Dip station
10 reverse push up
5 seated pull up
5 one leg assisted triceps dips
5 leg raises

After completing one round, reverse the order and so on until the timer ends. Each round count as 1 set. I think I completed about 4 sets total.

Then I did 10 sets of pistols for each leg.

Power Girl Workout with morning jump rope

I did some jump rope in the morning, didn't keep track how many skips I did. But for some reason, throughout the day I feel some aching on my right side back (around the waist area). Not sure if I pushed myself a bit too much while jumping rope or what. It hurts more if I try to bend down or anything to do with leaning towards the right side.

However, in the evening after I got home, I cranked up Power Girl workout by Zuzana.

The numbers are a teeny bit better than last time I did (especially doing these with the pain on my back right waist). Will post up the number later.

Power Girl Workout

I felt a bit of under the weather. My throat has been bothering me since yesterday afternoon. It feels hurt and dry, blame it on the rice cereal that I had with yogurt yesterday afternoon. Maybe too much of cereal and too little yogurt. My throat is pretty sensitive to dry stuff, hopefully that's the case. I can't afford to catch a cold now :(

Anyway, today's workout was another one from Bodyrock.tv: Power Girl (or Boy) Workout.



Power Girl (or Boy) Workout breakdown:
12 minutes long, 50 sec interval with 10 sec rest. Total 6 workouts - 12 rounds.
1. Surfer 6 reps / 5 reps - not sure if I did it right but still boost up my heart rate.
2. Beach Scissors (Right side) - 14 reps / 11 reps - I did the modified version with the elbow down
3. Beach Scissors (Left side) - 15 reps / 15 reps - I did the completely modified verson - elbow & hip down.
4. Fighter's Lunge (left side) 26 reps / 28 reps
5. Fighter's Lunge (right side) 26 reps / 27 reps
6. 1-2-3 Push Ups 7 reps / 8 reps - totally fail on this one

Then I did side crunches and regular crunches - 70 reps each.

25 push ups

Yoga for cool down.

Not quite great with today's workout but still better than nothing.

Btw, today at work there were some kind of health fair where they offered glucose, cholesterol and body fat check for free. My glucose and cholesterol were in good range. First time I got my body fat check (they used the skin caliper thing) and turned out mine was 19%, which according to the chart I fell into the athletic category. Hm, I secretly kinda proud of it. Ok enough ramblings.
