Pole Jumps anyone?

Today Erin told me she might have me in tears. I don't know if that is the best way to start a workout, but that is how we began.

Then she had me do pole jumps, bosu jumps and lifts, calf jumps, bicep curls, around the world lunges, lunges with a elastic band, and presses. Then we went over to the weight side of the gym and I did scarecrow lifts, biceps again, drawer openers and then wall squats with a ball.

Then we did side ball throws and luckily I did not hurt anyone when tossing although I came close.

I am proud to say I did not cry and I feel like I made it through pretty well. Erin wants me to check out a website www.fitday.com so I will be doing that soon.

Have a great evening as I look forward to an early bed time :)

Ohhh...that does not sound fun. But, I am sure it is effective. Hope you are able to move tomorrow :)

WHAT are pole jumps?? All I can think is pole vaulting....which I'm assuming is NOT what you were up to. I would definitely kill myself by trying pole vaulting.

Becca--a pole jump is as follows. Hold onto a pole, jump up and down 6 times and then go into a squat for 10 seconds. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Yup repeat 6 times so that you do one minute of squats. By number 4 you are hoping you are close to being done and the thought of doing this a second time is giving you the willies!!!
