So today was our first "real" Body Back workout. Most of it is a blur because I couldn't really breathe the whole time but I will try to give you some details. I knew before I went that it was going to be a "running" workout and that scared me.....I look like some sort of superhero when I run and it's just awkward! When I got there the instructor Breanne got right to business and had us run down the street to a parking lot. "It's not far" she said. Halfway through the run I was thinking "really, where the HELL is this place?!?!", it was far......very far. When we got there the real madness began and this is where I get a little fuzzy......we squatted, and jumped, and did some things that made my ass feel like it might just fall off! Right around the next station is where I began to get VERY nauseous.....we jumped, and did some arm exercises. I was THISCLOSE to throwing up throughout the rest of class. I even started tearing up at one point thinking "really, this is ridiculous!" but I pushed through it! The last torture we had to endure was to wrap a resistance band around our hips and have someone pull us back while we tried to run UP a hill. Needless to say I thought I was going to die, but I managed to do it alive.
Once we got back to the starting point we stretched a bit. I felt like my whole body was jello. Let me tell you that feeling did not last long......I am already sore, very sore! I'm pretty sure getting out of bed tomorrow morning will be a 30 minute event, and sitting on the toilet will be a chore!!
I am so proud of us for getting through our first really tough workout :) We weigh in on Monday so we will post our week 1 results then! Hopefully we see the results we want to keep us motivated!
As far as food goes, I am pretty bored. There isn't a huge array of meals to chose from for this 8 weeks because they want to help us achieve maximum results. I have pretty much been sticking with the same few things and I'm going to have to switch it up soon to keep myself entertained! Other than that I have felt great, and satisfied! I only felt hungry the first day of the program and now it is becoming much easier.....the eating part at least :)
XOXO,
Nat
