I didn't get to bed on time the night before. A friend called me and so I was up past my bedtime, but thank goodness for night class.

We warmed up with steam engines, open and close stretching, and elephant trunks.
I really enjoyed the shadow boxing and knees are getting easier. I try hard to thrust with my hip and not just my knee. Rudy asked us to improve our form and to work the program, not get worked byu the program.

Our pushups were killer! It was a basically a move that I learned from my Wii balance board, but we did like 50 reps, ten at a time: push-up = down and then up while reaching one arm to the sky, then down and then up reaching the other arm to the sky, opening your body to the side. That is one rep. Between reps we shadow boxed, then did crazy ab work, which I NEED! Flutter kicks still kill me, especially the whole 6 inches off the ground thing. We do crunches and in and out type v situps. My legs were still smoked from Tuesday, so the spinning was torturous and I felt slow like molasses again, except I lightened it up when we were going for speed instead for hard resistance. Note to self, shorts are okay for the beach workout, not okay for gym workout because you never know when youmight be riding a spin bike. My shorts rode up and were so uncomfortable. I almost got to tray a cool seat pad, but then I saw Katherine and remembered how torturous the seats are for her, so I let her have it. I'm not a fan of the seats, but it doesn't get to me so badly.

I was expecting the bosu ball, because some of the AM crew had some stories about how challenging it was. I think Rudy said we will get it Friday night.

He also mentioned that Encinitas Frogs is offering discounted memeberships to his participants. I guess it is $51 a month for 12 months, sign-up fee waived.

Sorry this is a rather dull, episode, I am a wee bit fatigued.
