I couldn't get my act together to do Yoga yesterday, which I'm regretting...especially since I'm the guy who said, "Don't skip yoga".
Anyway, today starts Phase 2, which brings new weight routines. Today is the worst, I mean hardest, of them, CST. Three muscle groups that you constantly use in conjunction with each other. When you do a push up, you think it's chest, but you're also using Tricep and Shoulder. This routine is 24 exercises in 55 minutes. It's rough, it moves fast, and it starts with Slow Motion Push Ups!
After the joy of that start, it all becomes a blur as you do your best and forget the rest on shoulder presses, dips, clap/plyo push ups, tricep extensions, and even one armed push ups, on my knees thank you very much.
It's a huge pump, and don't sell yourself short, there's always one more push up in there somewhere. Clap push ups are the second to last push up exercise. I got down on the floor and didn't think I'd be able to hold myself up. I finished with 12 or 14 clappers....and at the end, yes, it is a challenge to see just how fast your hands can move.
Enjoy the pump!
