Shirley and I were just talking about planks yesterday, how strange that my workout would be centered around planks this morning. I do have to say that spinning class has inspired me. I did 20 minutes on the up-right bike this morning, a machine I tend to avoid because of the ass-hurtin' issues. I had my heartrate up over 170 for a big portion of it, it felt good!
So, Ash had me do a ciruit of shoulder/plank exercises today. It involved shoulder presses with 12 pounders, L-raises with 10 pounders and elbow lifts with 12 pounders. I think I am ready to go to 15 pounds though. In between arm exercises, I had to do one minute planks on the bose ball. Not just normal planks, but side planks! Side planks! One minute each side!! Holy moly mother of Moses! It was insane, I thought my arm was going to fall off.
It was a great workout. I won't get to work with Ash again for 2 and half weeks, this makes me so sad. I will miss her while she's on vacation. Woe is me. But I will make her proud while she's gone! Tomorrow is kick-boxing and Friday is spinning class. Wahoo!
