....vertical. plyo. death.

death...as in death of legs

here i am right after the workout. you really cannot even see how much sweat is on my face. a little disappointing. haha. but don't worry, i was SOO drenched


oh and by the way...that is a very sarcastic thumbs up. i felt like collapsing to the floor at this moment (it helps that they all clap and cheer at the end of a workout, gives me a LITTLE boost)

BUT HEYYYY.....i MADE IT!!! woo hoo! this is by far the hardest workout up to this point (this would be day 4!!) all of the workouts have been intense in their own ways, BUT this one...literally. insane. when Shaun s DYING...........ya......it does prove that he's at least human, though (i suppose...haha)

I would say that it's ALL about the legs...i mean it is plyo, jumping, vertical, rotating...BUT. it is TOTAL BODY. you work with resistance bands (both on arms AND legs...WHILE jumping and pushup-ing). you're jumping, lunging, using the agility ladder, working on your balance, doing pushups...whew. this one pushes your body to it's final breaking point, several times. my legs are so so exhausted right now, and even a little jello-y, 7 hours later.

But once again, Shaun pulls you through, dying right there with you, pushing with you. and once you finally get to the end you hear "15 seconds till the Hell is OVER" and those lateral jumps over your ladder are KILLING your legs, you do just a few more, and then he says just what you wanna hear: "TIME". and collapse. well...at least that's how my ending went. haha. 

I know i keep saying this, but it feels SO GOOD once you finish! no matter how hard it was or how fatigued my muscles felt throughout, that final 'time' at the end just makes me feel pretty darned accomplished. 

KEEP PUSHIN' THROUGH EVERYONE. no matter what you're doing...just get out there and do SOMETHING. take a walk at the park, walk your dog, mow your lawn, hit the gym, or (if you're crazy enough) take on Insanity, P90X, or  the Asylum. 

make a choice. make a change. make a commitment. stick to it. you will not regret it. i promise you. 

until tomorrow......LOVES - Court
