Lunges, jumps and squats, oh my!

From 7/1/2008

I think this is what we did tonight. I might be leaving out a thing or two... this was in 30 minutes


Squats w/ ball – lean ball against the wall, place at mid-lower back.. feet out and squat.

Butterfly. Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee. Weights and arms up, butt out, bend forward and FLY!! Move arms up and down.

Steps! Run up and down 1 step. Lead with right foot, then lead with left.

Wall push ups.

Boxing moves… jab, jab (repeat) cut, cut (repeat) combination: jab, jab, cut, cut (need partner)
Elbow jabs… Partner stands behind, jab pads with elbows.

Lunges, jumps and squats, oh my! Lunge, on the upswing jump into a squat. Repeat.

Crunches.

Crunches and punches. Punch opposite site as sitting up for crunches. (need partner to hold legs down and hold punching things)

Lower back ball things. Lay on a ball, do backwards sit ups.

Leg pushing horribleness. Lay on back, grab partner’s ankles. Legs straight up. Partner pushes your legs, you bring them back to partner’s hands.

i meet with the PT two more times before i start bootcamp. next tuesday, then the tuesday after that. she's going to email me some exercises, too.

tomorrow it's yoga at 6:30 while Hubby watches the kids and cooks dinner.

thursday i'll do some of the exercises we did today. i can't decide if i want to do Hip Hop Aerobics or pilates/stretch yoga class... or both.

i think that soon i'll be able to do a lot more of the classes that the Y offers, so that'll be cool.
