Well I had my first lesson with JoEllen. I survived. Barely... Let's look at the gym first. It is a giant building with metal exterior and NO AC. At the front is a row of stationary bikes. To the right is the weight section. The middle is a giant mat. This gym also teaches Jijitzu. At the back there is a big roll up door, near the door is a set of three pull up bars, rings and other random things. Let's just say it's intense and very intimidating.
Day 1, she took it easy on me. I still whined. Started out with 20 minutes on the stationary bike then I did a rotation of 5 ball drops, 10 push-ups and 15 kettle bell swings ---- 11 times!!! Yep, I was sore...
Day 2, she still said she took it easy on me.... Lies Lies Lies. I started by doing 10 minutes on the bike, going fast. Moved to the back and did a increasing rotation followed by a decreasing rotation of ball drops and ring pull ups. If that didn't make me sick, we moved on to riding the bike really fast for 1 minute, running down the street and back followed by 10 burpies (squat, kick your legs out and jump up high reaching to the ceiling). Yep I did that 10 times... I thought I was dying. I got home and was completely soaked from sweat, red face and blisters on my hands.
It took an incredibly intense turn. I am going to try to get up and run tomorrow. If I don't make it, I'll run 2 miles on Saturday and 6 miles on Sunday. I may not survive this race. Or if all goes well, I will dominate this race!!!! We shall see!!!
Love!
