Tuesday (Class Style Workout)

Posted: 13th May 2008 by trboh in Daily Blog

This morning I started to do a CLASS STYLE workout. Dave took the classes Jim had been doing and further defined them for me. It was a lot more fun than just doing a circuit of a couple of exercises. Also, I did this in the fitness room where I had plenty of room to move around and do walks. Only one person came into the room for the entire time I was there so it’s like a private gym with everything I need.

Also did my shoulder flyes and elbow exercises and stretching.

I used a 16KG for my windmills which was a big mistake. That started my back hurting that really impacted my workout. I pushed through the EDT however, I did not do as good as I could have. With the back hurting it really drained my energy.

*I have learned my lesson. I simply cannot do windmills with weight, at least at this point. It’s not worth the problems it causes.
