Fit Camp day 2

Slippidy....Sloppidy....

Thank you for the overcast skies and mild temperatures but the rain overnight made the grassy field a mess.  It made for increased core training and balancing today with the slippin' and slidin'.....so thank you...Grothar, the god of weather.  

Today it was a sexist day!  

We broke up into groups and basically boys played with the boys and girls played with the girls.  I would have much rather played with the girls.  

I will say that it was much easier today or maybe it was easier because I knew how hard it was going to be for the hour of pain.  We had only 1 victim fall to his knees throwing up and then he signed up for a full month of pain.  I am sure he will thank me one day but right now.... I called to check on him, he does want to talk to me...then he said I  will see you next week.  

Burn my Fat Off Please! 

If you are tracking my calorie burn...1075 today.  I'm 6' 1 1/2" and I have to work really hard at burning those calories in an hour.  My heart rate was at 160-185 for most of the hour and it would only come down  when we were doing upper body stuff...down to 155...what a break.  

I don't think it for me! 

Many people may hesitate or think this isn't for them because they run, swim,cycle or do some other type of training or none at all.   Maybe they are nervous that they don't think they will be able to do it. FitCamp is at your own pace...you go as hard as you can...because nobody is going to judge you for what you can not do...You will be praised for what you can do.  You take breaks if you needed, slow down the pace and work to the finish.  Each time it gets easier as you gain fitness.

Lots of Training...little results

I often rode my bicycle 12-15 hrs per week as well as some other aerobic activity  with little results.  Today, I train 60% less and  I am getting great results.  I do 2- 1 hour circuit training session per week, FitCamp on Saturday, 1 hour cycling on Sunday, 30 min swim on Friday and 30 mins of running on Wednesday.  I take 2 full days off for recovery and rest which really helps my body rebuild so I can train harder.  These guys have me training as hard as I can and then the reward is I get days off to rest.  I use to think that I needed to train 7 days per week but now I can not wait to sleep in or just do nothing.  I often am so sore that I really need the days off to start feeling like a human again.  The results are both physical and mental.  I have reduced my midsection, I finally  built up my arms and I feel great.  

Bring a Friend

Got a friend that you might think will hate this...maybe its a payback for that joke he or she played on you last week.  Bring that friend and teach them a lesson...a lesson on how much tougher you are than them.  It's good fun and after...you can tell others..when they throw up.
