Bodyrock.tv: Fcuk the Gym Workout

Since Zuzana didn't posted new workout/exercise challenge over the weekend, I chose one of her older one as my Monday morning workout. I broke my own rule for exercising after a lack of sleep the night before. It was weird, despite my lack of shut eye, I woke up and felt so pumped up to do this workout.

Hell yea F**k, it'll only take 12 minutes so get your butt outta here and finish it! - I told myself.

I couldn't find Zuzana's workout names/pictures so I just made up the names.

Bodyrock.tv: Ab-tastic Exercise Challenge

Finally I caught up on Zuzana's workout schedule for this week. However, seems like I'll have to pick up some of her older archive for tomorrow's workout since I didn't see the new workout schedule posted yet.

Today I did Ab-tastic Exercise Challenge, which we did a while back in January.

Repeat this circuit 5 times.

20 reps of Hanging Knee Raises (from pull up bar/dip station) or Leg Raises (laying on the back on the exercise mat)  P90X Ab Ripper X move: The V Up Roll ups, which look something like this:

Bodyrock.tv: Yeah Workout

I took another rest day yesterday to give my stiff neck more break and this morning when I woke up, no more stiff neck but then I had a slight dry sore throat...DAMN!

It took me a while to decide whether I should do the newest bodyrock.tv workout or just went to the older routine. It looked pretty intimidating, especially the Cartwheel part.

In the end I just sucked it and did it.

Workout breakdown:

Part 1: 30 reps Push Ups & Monkey Kick (Time Challenge)
My time: 5:56 - mine wasn't as smooth as Zuzana

Part 2: 5 sec of Cartwheel / 15 sec Mountain Climbers for 18 rounds (Interval)
15 sec Mt climbers felt so exhausting..for some reason I'm losing my Mt. Climber stamina? :( and of course I did my FUGLY cartwheels LOL - more like I was stumbling to the sides rather than landing softly

Cartwheel supposed to look like this

But mine (FUGLY cartwheel) looked more like this:

Part 3: 50 sets of 3x Jump Lunges + Front Kick (Time Challenge)
My time: 9:40 - quads and legs were burning and I had to take lots of break after 1-2 sets.

Bodyrock.tv: Hard Body Workout

Zuzana posted one of her older workout since her leg still feels sore. I've came across to this workout before but haven't got a chance to do it so today was a good time to do it. Speaking of which, my butt and legs were a bit sore from last workout as well, but not as bad. My neck was still a bit stiff but didn't bother me as much as before.

Workout breakdown: Do the entire circuit 5 times

5 ninja jump tucks
10 reps elevated bridge leg lift (each leg)
5 reps dynamic push ups
20 reps one arm, one leg bridge
5 reps one leg burpee (each leg)

I finished it in 20:36
