I honestly thought it was a different workout today, slightly sighed when i realised it was Cardio Power and Resistance. There isn't as much cardio in this one, but that doesn't mean you don't sweat like hell. It's all about interval training, so your constantly getting your heart rate to it's maximum and then resting to recover, then get it back up and repeat! It's the most effective way to fat burn, with the amount of sweat that drips off you, there's no way you ain't burning fat.
I think for me, the tricep push ups and one legged tricep pushups are the most challenging. Feet out in front of you, hands behind you in a kind of crab position, balance yourself on your heels and bend the elbows, keep going until Shaun says STOP. Then we're lifting one leg, and doing it again. It really really reallly burns. I had to rest a little on this as my arms were on fire!!
Tips:
- Always make the most of the stretching, although i'm quite flexible naturally, i've definitley seen improvement
- Don't feel bad for taking a 5 second rest
- Exhale after power moves
- When you think you can't do another - do two more!!
Tomorrow is Pure Cardio again. GOD HELP ME. It's so tiring and so much hard work, but you don't see results without perseverance.
