Workout

I did this? No, seriously, I did this. Please look at the pic.

bad-ass.

For some unknown reason, I woke up completely refreshed at 4:45am?! Huh?! Is my body getting used to the ridiculous timing of my Monday morning workouts?! Well, whatever…I was just pleased that I didn’t feel like a complete zombie as I was getting my stuff together, making a wild breakfast and lunch, feeding the kitty, and so on. I got to the gym by 6:30ish and did a super-light warm-up on the treadmill (mostly walking and a few minutes of jogging). Then, I had my session with Trainer Mike.

Uhm…Trainer Mike was off his rocker today. No, seriously. I think he was delirious from lack of sleep, too much partying, winning the football play-offs he was in, and quite possibly a number of other reasons. Most of the session was pretty standard: alternating arm kettle bell swings, sit-ups w/ a 12 lbs medicine ball on a swiss ball (75 total), alternating step-ups onto the plyo-bench, squats (60 total) with hip abductor exercise, incline push-ups (40 total), more hip / glute exercises, tricep dips off the bench, etc. But, at one point, who knows what inspired him…he had me do this: push-ups with the TRX while my entire body was suspended and my feet were against the wall. WTF?! Check out the pic above! I did 3 x 12 of those and now I’m officially adding “bad-ass” to my name. Msh “bad-ass” 258. Yes, I like it.
