HOLY BURN BATMAN!

Yup, you read right.....BURN!  I did the WOD today and burned, burned, and burned some more.  It was crazy, but I loved every second and literally was dragging my feet by the time I was done.

So here it is....(my modifications are below the picture)


Instead of pull ups (impossible) or burpees (I despise them with every ounce of my being) I jumped rope for 40 rotations
Instead of jumping lunges (which I DID try), I did walking lunges with a 12 lb ball and added an abdominal twist across the studio floor twice
Instead of renegade rows (which are hard on my wrists) I did rows on the TRX

Instead of V-Ups I did toe touchers
DID the leg raises (and they were HARD!)
Instead of flutter kicks, which were irritating my lower back, I did swimmers on my tummy

 After all of this I still had a few precious minutes left before I had to get working at the job that pays me, I decided to row for 10 minutes.  Probably not my best idea, only because my muscles were already SO fatigued and I hadn't eaten ANYTHING yet this morning, but I made it through.  I was SO exhausted on my way out of the gym I was literally tripping on my way out because my feet just didn't pick up like they did before the workout and then when I got in the car I literally had to PICK UP my foot to get in the car. LOL!

Oh well, after a fantabulous breakfast of roasted sweet potatoes and onions with garlic and rosemary and 3 eggs, I'm good as new!  (well almost)  Still sore and stretching every chance I get, but feel amazing!

Happy Hump Day!

P.S. Here are some random, silly pictures I took at the gym too! (I'm a photographer in my other life)

TRX BABY!!!!!

Doing some SERIOUS core work!
