I made it through my first bootcamp class and I can barely move. It was an hour of interval training. We had 6 stations. At each station you have 2 exercises. You get a total of 8 minutes at each station and 4 minutes to do each exercise.
The first station was a lovely combo of "burpees" and "mountain climbers". I'm not really sure who names these things, but they should have been called "hurl" and "puke". Just a suggestion. I guess I'm lucky we didn't have to do suicides tonight.
However we did have to do walking lunges and squat jumps next. Bicycle crunches, cherry picker crunches and side plank yoga poses. Then, we move on to bicep and tricep crunches. To end on my all time fav...jumping rope and squats.
I have to say I was quite proud of myself. I did all of the stations and I actually jumped rope! I was trying not to pee my pants the entire time I was doing it, but I did it! Obviously not for 4 minutes straight - we all know I'm not that coordinated, but still.
I'm trying to stay motivated and encouraged. A friend told me I should have gone for a walk yesterday to work out the kinks. Instead I went to a New Year's Eve party and danced my ass off for 2+ hours straight. I think that qualifies as a workout.
Now I really can't move. Thank goodness I can hold onto my vanity in the loo to sit on the toilet. Sheesh.

On a completely random note. Have you seen this stupid advert for DVDs to watch TRAINS? That's right, trains. You can watch all sorts of random trains as they ride on their tracks...I don't get it. I mean, I sort of get the whole train-set fascination and the hobby, but why on earth would you want to watch trains on a DVD? It didn't even look like it was some sort of documentary on how trains work - just watching them. Like it is train porn.
I won't even go into the stupid "slanket/snuggie" thing either. Seriously, is it that difficult to deal with a blanket?
