Let's get this party started!

Day 2, Workouts: 2

Well, this project started out with a rest day thanks to insanely sore shoulders from Saturday's training. I hadn't so much as touched my upper body for four months before so perhaps timed push-up intervals were not the best way to go on the first day back. But, I'm not one for doing anything halfway so it's balls to the walls, baby! Yarr.

So workout one today is dedicated to all the New Year's Resolutionaries! I will never laugh at those people; making a change is hard to do and if it sticks for even 10% of them, that's a lot more people taking care of themselves this year than there were last year. And for the other 90% who don't, you can bet they will be farther along in the decision-making process, and all the more likely to stick with it next year. So here's to all of you! Keep up the good work.

Leg Day
Deadlifts, 6x5 reps
Band-assisted chin-ups, 6x5 reps (for the record, I know this was stupid. I know. It won't happen again.)

X-over step-ups, 10 each leg
1-leg glute bridges from a med ball, 15 each leg

Quad Blast:
24 squats
24 alternating forward lunges
24 jump squats
24 split jumps
Time: 2:17

Workout 2 today is for everyone at K. H. Min Taekwondo who competed at nationals this past weekend! Very proud of you guys and I am glad for the opportunity to train with all of you.

Cardio! This is my favorite cardio workout right now; it's short, intense, and kicks my ass in all the right ways. It's 5 rounds, 1 minute of work followed by 30 seconds' rest. 2 minutes' rest between circuits, so the whole thing takes 46 minutes.
1. Jump rope
2. Left leg speed kicking
3. Right leg speed kicking
4. Over-the-top box shuffles
5. Box jump burpees

Whammo! 2 workouts in the bag on Day 2.
