Trainer Week 5

This is my final week of having a personal trainer!! I also found out I may have shin splints. They hurt really bad, but I thought I was just sore from going to the gym everyday and extra conditioning to get ready for softball. But besides that, today my trainer had me do a cardio kickboxing circuit.

First I had to jump sideways over the bars she laid on the ground. Forward two, backwards one.

Then I had to sit on this rolly chair and use only my legs to pull myself across the room and back. (4 times)

 Next was side kicks. I could touch my toe back down for only a second! It was very faced pace. Each leg for 30 seconds.

Next was step ups. But these step ups were cardio-style, at a super fast pace. It was more like constant jumping on and off, rather than stepping up and back down.



The last part of the circuit was front kicks. I had to raise my knee and kick straight on as hard as I could. It was each leg for 30 seconds. I was pretty proud I pushed it over a few times!!

I was tired after I finished that little circuit. But then I found out I had to do the whole thing 2 more times!! It was a really good cardio workout and it was much different than anything I have even done before!! I am so glad I had the opportunity to work with my trainer and get new workout ideas! :)

5 sessions, 5 weeks, complete at last! Thanks to everyone who followed my blog! I hope you got a few new ideas about food and working out from reading! :)
