Day 329

So finallllllyyy the trainer who I accidentally scolded called me up for the free PT session. Actually... he's super nice and helpful. After the workout he didn't "pressure" me to sign up for PT. I really donno what he gains from it except that he's being nice? Or maybe he will ask me to sign up later? Right now I just think of him as a nice guy lah.. hahaha. At the end of the session he said that I'm "quite strong". Hehehe.

The workout was actually quite simple, a little like circuit training... and at least I learnt some new ways to exercise.
1st circuit :
- basic march on step board (highest level) while lifting 3lb weights straight in front and down x 20
- basic march on step board (highest level) while lifting 3lb weights to the side (shoulder) x 20
- basic march on step board (highest level) while lifting 3lb weights over the head x20
- 20 x abs crunches. Hold your core in, sitting on step board. From side, body looks like a lazy "v"
- 20 x leg lifts... you lie on your back on the step board, then you lift the fit ball up (it's held between your legs) til 90 degrees from your body. From side, body looks like an "L"

2nd circuit :
- sit on fit ball and do alternate bicep curls x 20 (8lb weights)
- on fit ball, and do side raises (10x)
- on fit ball, overhead raises (10x)
- on fit ball, overhead triceps (10x)

Thank you ***** for the workout! :)

After that, we need cardio right? I went for Body Jam, replacement by Caroline. She's the super duper stamina feller. We did the performance track for Chaka Khan and the "street jazz" performance Party Like a Rockstar. Throw in Impacto and Crazy. Don't know the name of the warm-up and recovery (it's from the latest release), but we ended with I'll Be Your Baby Tonight.

It was super tiring to do her class after that workout. Though the circuit training sounds easy, it was difficult, especially the fit ball leg raises.... it really works your inner thigh though!! Thank God Caroline let us choose to either do street jazz or the "womanizer" performance track (the one with the step & freeze)... of course street jazz ler!! Hahaha.. although I forgot that that track is pretty cardio too!!
