Workout Update

I am on week one of my Brazil Butt Lift (BBL) TurboFire hybrid and I have done what many of us do all the time. 

I slacked.

I have had this dang cold off and on for almost two weeks. One day my throat hurts, the next day I feel fine, the next day I can't breath out of my nose, the next day I am coughing up a storm. I was still exercising but I was wheezing through the routines and not finishing the enitre DVD. Not to mention my body feels like I was hit by a bus (especially my chest/back).

TMI alert! Yesterday, I coughed up blood. Gross. Thankfully, I feel a little better today. 

I've been drinking emergen-c, green tea, and my Shakeology which is full of other healthy crud every day. 

Decided to start the week over on Monday and just do Yoga and Stretching until this cough goes away at least. ((Bummed))

The good about this whole week of wasteful sickness is that I have some new insight into the BBL DVDs that have arrived!

First of all, I was WRONG! Cardio Axe is NOT the only cardio DVD included. Bum Bum will get your heart going. It's quick movement lower body work, and trust me, I was sweating!

I also did Tummy Tuck, and was sore in my abs for THREE DAYS afterwards. DANG! I'm one of those people who don't usually get sore so for me I thought this was awesome! Obviously my baby-growing muscles need reconditioned and I know tummy tuck will do the job.

The last DVD I have done so far is High and Tight. H&T is broken into three segments. Standing band work, floor band work, floor work with ankle weights. It's all booty focus. Again here being completely honest, I did not care for the standing band work. In fact, I found myself jumping around randomly during certain portions because I was unable to coordinate my feet to move that way, that fast.

The floor work, both with the bands and the ankle weights, is AWESOME! My butt hurt the next day for sure (not the way my abs did but still any soreness is a good feeling)

What Else?

I gathered from the cardio I have done that I probably won't be one of those people who loves Cardio Axe. Not because anything is wrong with Leandro and BBL, but I have already found deep cardio love with running, and second to that, TurboFire. 

The results of this week, although I only lost one pound (probably a pound of snot haha) were a more enlightened view of my next program. I have decided to do less of a hybrid with BBL, and more of a supplemental kinda thing. I love TurboFire and, confession time, have actually never completed the entire program!

So over the weekend, I plan on working out by doing stretching and resting so I can finally KICK some cold/cough/virus BOOTAY! 

I should also make some kind of schedule that follows the basic TurboFire schedule and adds Brazillian Butt Lift in a way that won't wear me out or cause a 3 hour workout session! I'll be posting that hopefully before I begin on Monday!

In the way of food, I'll be getting some new fruits and veggies and chopping them up and if it stops raining here, marinate and grill up some chicken for quick eats during the week! Maybe do my online homework. Meh. Who needs math anyways?!
