Mojo returning

Today was a fast, crazy day! To work (on time for a change) and finished weeding through the voice mail and emails which piled up over the vacation...then I realized that I have a meeting at 3 and I'm giving not one, but two presentations - THAT I HAVEN'T STARTED YET!! Eeeekkkk!

So, I frantically start working on the powerpoints and in the back of my mind is my workout at 12:30. This means I basically have to be done the presentations by 12:15. Fear not, I got 'er done! (And I did pretty well during the presentations too!)

Today was another time trial, but one that we hadn't done before. It was four rounds of the following:
  • Single leg deadlift with a plyo jump (10 per leg)
  • Maltese Cross sit ups - from laying down (arms over head) into a sitting position (with feet pressed heel to heel in a psudo cross legged position. Touch one foot, arms over head and back all the way down. Then bring legs into the air and lift heels to the ceiling. (20)
  • single arm pushup (wide legged) - (5 per arm)
  • mountain climber (1, 2, 3), into standing with a jump, and back down (20)
So that group of 4 exercises x 4 rounds took me 25 min (and some seconds). I was pretty happy with the time, I always push hard on that last one so I can be happy with the time, AND remember, I'm a tad competetive so time trials and the thing for me. I ALWAYS have to better my time...ALWAYS!!! :)

Anyway, workout felt good during and I'm starting to get back some of the energy level afterwards (like I used to feel). Its feeling less like a chore and more like the fun!! YEAH!

Oh, and its Craig's (the other crazy trainer at Core Essentials) 4-0 birthday today - so Happy Birthday Craig. It's not so scary is it??

I know I promised more pics today, but it was just so busy that I didn't have time - even if the camera was in my purse! I'll try harder tomorrow...

Nite
