Monday Morning Workout

While getting up early to work out is tough, I have to say I like the morning workouts better than the night time ones. I'm not sure if it's because of time of day or the smaller class size, though. It may just be novelty, since we tend to do things differently in the smaller group.

I got to class a few minutes early but the doors were locked. We didn't get into the building until 7:15 so class ended up starting a few minutes late, but once it started we jumped right in: 

Warm-up: 

• 45 Seconds Kettlebell Squats (35 lbs)
• 45 seconds TRX Y-pulls 
• 45 seconds walking high kicks

 We repeated the warm up three times and then moved on to the circuit.

Circuit: 

• 45 seconds TRX triceps extensions
• 45 seconds Monster Waves on the heavy rope
• 45 seconds Shoulder Pull-downs (40 lbs)
• 45 seconds Imbalanced Squats (30 lbs Kettlebell )
• 45 seconds Band Single-arm Shoulder Presses (Blue band)
• 45 seconds Mountain Climbers on glides
• 45 seconds Wall Slam with Jam Ball (4 lb)

 We repeated the circuit twice, changing arms on the imbalanced squats and shoulder presses on the second circuit. We then did a brief core workout.

Core: 

• 45 seconds Russian Twists passing a medicine ball (6 lbs)
• 45 seconds Scissor Kicks
• 45 seconds Russian Twists passing a medicine ball (6 lbs)
• 45 seconds modified Jackknifes

 Then we stretched it out for the last couple of minutes.

I had a Medifast shake prior to workout, and then ate a can of low-sodium tuna after for the extra protein.
