Three And A Half Weeks To PCC And I've HIt A Wall and Exciting Things To Come

Yep, I do not feel like training at all.  This is not good.  I have 3.5 weeks to go to PCC and I feel like I’ve hit the wall.  Not sure what my problem is.  Lots of stuff going on I guess.  My arm hurts 

Bootcamp Grad Workout, Sneak Peek, and Today's Training

Bootcamp Grad Workout, Sneak Peek, and Today's Training

The five week bootcamp is finishing up.  One session left.  Today was measuring and pics and results will be revealed Monday. Had some amazing results.  Can’t wait to share with the ladies.

Today was the “grad workout.”  The hard as hell, I hate your guts, you suck, deck of cards workout.  I change it up a lot, but this is how this one went.

Two decks of cards, 9s and 10s removed.  Aces equals 1.  Jacks -20 jumping jacks; Queens – 30 fast feet (she was a bitch today.  Made multiple back to back appearances); King – 40 marches and the dreaded Joker was a 45 second wall sit.  Hearts -double the digit swings; spades – lat rows; diamonds -goblet squats and clubs -presses.  We went 30 minutes.  The ladies did great.  They will receive their bootcamp t-shirts on Monday.  They turned out amazing.  Here is a peek.

Today’s training is just getting underway.  It’s only 6:35 p.m.  Tayler is extremely sick so I stayed home with her today.  Not sure if she has the flu or what.  Treating her with DoTerra essential oils, lots of flu bombs, On Guard Plus, and peppermint

I went to a bodyweight exercise workshop on Saturday in Sioux Falls, hosted by Results Personal Training and presented by Aleks Salkin.  I wanted to do this in order to help me prepare for PCC in May, about 4 weeks out.  I left my house about 6 a.m. and spent six hours, crawling, doing push ups, chin ups, handstands, pistols, etc.  All bodyweight exercises and the progressions of each one.  Progressions are the most important thing to learn, in my opinion.  The day was great and I learned a lot.  Took the day off from training today, as my body is tired.  I just want to sleep.  Anyway… here are a few pics from the day.
