Today was the first day of the actual boot camp. Wow was it challenging and man am I sore. This is what we did in approximately this order
1. Warmed up by jogging around the exercise room for about 4 minutes. Side stepped around both directions another couple of minutes. Stretched out and headed out to the indoor track/tennis court.
2. Ran 1/2 mile
3. Played two games of a tag like game where two people are "it" and they chase the others and try to pull out a towel they have tucked in their shorts. The losers then (which I was each game) then become "it" and chase the remaining people until the last one remains. The winner tells all the rest the penalty for losing which today was 25 jumping jacks and 15 push ups respectively.
4. suicide sprints across the tennis court. x2
5. suicide side steps across the tennis court x2
6. squatting slow side steps across the court x1 (very painful)
7. squatting leg kicks across the court x1
8. Six laps around the small indoor track sprinting on the straight aways and jogging on the turns (which for me consisted of jogging and walking respectively).
9. Lunges around the small track - one lap
---then we headed back to the exercise room for more torture
10. With a mat on the floor we took dumbbells and did a pyramid set of military press above our head while on our knees then set the dumbells down and do push ups. Started with one rep and ended with 10 (very hard after what we had already done)
11. We did and exercise where you sit on your elbows and toes for 1 minutes. Then again for 30 seconds.
12. leg lift type exercises for about 2 minutes
13. stretched to end the day. whew!
I am so sore but plan to push on! All for now - got to do it all again bright and early in the morning.
