Just a quick post to give you a rundown on Friday and Saturday’s training sessions.

Friday saw me have a go at one of the foundation girls of Cross Fit in Angie.

I have to say that Angie is not a very nice girl. You have to complete each exercise before you move on to the next one.

Angie

100 x chin ups

100 x push ups

100 x sit ups

100 x air squats

This is a time based challenge to be finished as quick as possible, and I really sucked at this one…. As much as it wasn’t really a cardiovascular based fitness session I really struggled. Once I had gotten to a certain number the muscles just wouldn’t contract to keep going and I found myself having to rest just to get two or three reps out at a time. 

Time: 24.30

Avg HR: 122

Calories: 249

Saturday saw me back at the Devil’s Den for another session with the boys (wish  had stayed at home)… I was a bit nervous as I had missed last weeks training session.

The cross fit session was made up of:

20 x 30kg push press ( standing shoulder press)

20 x squats

20 x push ups

20 x lunges

20 x burpees ( my fault I got these, when he asked what I wanted I said to lay down)

I have to say this was also a killer muscular wise. I felt ok with the caardiovascular, but I just couldn’t get my muscles to work at all and found myself having to rest to complete sets…

Time: 17.52

Avg HR: 163

Calories: 305

It was a great session and one I will definitely come back to at some stage.

I also had one of my Personal Training clients getting ready for the City to Surf and I had her do a modified version of

one of the cross fit sessions on Saturday morning and she was awesome. Well done girl…

Good luck to all of our clients heading to the City to Surf. I am sure you will all do yourselves and Succeed proud.
