Boot Camp - Day 1


My cousin and I joined a four-week, five-days-a-week boot camp. Monday, Wednesday and Friday cardio and strength training. Tuesday and Thursday yoga. Today was day one. Day one started at 5am, when I picked up J, who could barely speak English at that time. We started out w/ some stretching and jumping jacks, followed by running two laps around the park. I ran about one and a half. Next we did some wall sits, pushups, climb ups... more jumping jacks, jump rope, lunges. Gosh. I'm pooped! And my abs are killing me.

I'm pretty pumped, even though this is totally going to kick my ass. The trainer did a body composition test first.. with one of those pinchy things. I'm at 25.5% body fat. Which is just above the average, but well above what's considered to be ideal.

Tomorrow's yoga. Umm.. yah. We'll see how that goes. Bet J topples over at least six times. Taking at least one other person out with her (hi).
