RushFit day 27

Week 4 day 6 of RushFit.  1 month in.  Strength and endurance workout today.  Progress is I feel stronger.  My knees feel more flexible.  No major wow wow visible changes but I press on.  Scale weight is only 3 pounds less that day 1.  I am sure my eating is in need of much improvement as always.  Next weeks starts a change in the plans but hopefully it will be an added bonus.  Will keep a check and see.

RushFit day 26

Balance and agility again.  It's the end of the day and I did this early this morning.  I hurt and I am sore.  This one created more sweat than some of the other ones!!  One more day and the first month will be done--Wow time flies!!!!!  Dinner-well that wasn't planned out.  I didn't feel well so didn't feel like doing much.  Tired.com

RushFit day 25

Today I added the last dvd in the set.  Explosive power training.  About 30 minutes--5 rounds of various plyometrics.  Jumps, lunges and jacks.  Burpees with and without knee tucks.  Jump squats with weights.  It was intense even though there were only 3-5 reps!!! After it was over I realized that I indeed enjoyed the push!!!

RushFit day 24

Today was day 24 fight conditioning.  Still working on those combos.  Maybe a little less discombobulated!!!  Haven't felt much soreness lately.  Might be time to kick it up a notch.

RushFit days 22 and 23

Monday began week 4 of RushFit.  Time flies when you're having fun!!!  Rotated back to the Full body strength and conditioning workout.  I dropped down to 8 lbs around the 4th round.  I should have tried to stick with the 10's.  Today was stretching for flexibility.  Mentally this is a good break even though it was on the 2nd day of the week.  Back to fighting tomorrow.  I thought I saw progress in the mirror.  I will take pictures at the end of the 4 weeks and compare.  I know if I don't progress it is likely the food issue.  Pressing forward.

RushFit day 20

It's the first day of Fall!!! My favorite season but my allergies don't always agree!!  Day 20 was fight conditioning.  Still working on coordination.  Gahhh. Endurance felt a little better. Still a sweaty mess at the end.  Looks like week 4 starts to crank up the intensity a bit.  Dropped 1.5 pounds so that better than the gain from last week.

Rushfit days 17,18 and 19

OK somehow I have managed to get behind.
Wednesday was day 17 and that was Stretching for flexibility.  I still enjoy this one and if I had to do something extra it would be this one.  I purchased a foam roller and it would be nice if some of these programs included a 15-20 minute workout along with stretching.  I might seek out a video or dvd and maybe try to get it in once a week.  Maybe for weeks 5-8.  Need to see how the schedule changes.  Probably will include explosive training more often.  BTW  that comes up next week for the first time.  I think I will preview it.

Day 18 was the abdominal strength and core conditioning workout.  I am pretty good up until that round 5.  That is still a tough one.  Back bends have improved.  I didn't stay up the entire 30 secs but I did manage to get up for both sets. That v-sit Hindu pushup thingy.  Yea well.

Today was day 19 balance and agility.  This is first time I have done RF at night.  I dozed back off this morning and since I had an 8 a.m. dentist appointment I did not workout.  I sure didn't feel balanced or agile and was sweating by round 5 which kicked butt.  Gorilla squats were better.  The mule kicks were ok and the bear/alligator crawl pretty much turned into a spiderman push up.   I don't know if I am seeing much change but it's only 3 weeks in and still working on the food intake.  Pressing forward.
