This session was 45 minutes, so it was not so daunting a prospect as the previous 2x1 hour workouts. But that meant my expectations were lower and it didn't prepare me for what I was about to do. After the warm up it was then 28 minutes of non stop workout, followed by a 4 minute cool down.
I have to admit that the 28 minutes went quite quickly, because most of the exercises were new and every one was different. It took a lot of concentration as there were new techniques to learn. Some of the exercises were very intense consisting of a combination of a few exercises (such as push ups into flat running).
I'm not feeling any pain afterwards, but it is very intense. This workout needs a lot of stamina and I think that is what it is trying to build. One thing I also need to concentrate on is making the core tight. Because I am concentrating on the technique of the exercises I'm forgetting to tense my abs. I'll work on that next time, although I hope tomorrow is an easier recovery type of workout!
Thankfully some more of the Recovery XS came in to stock today, so I ordered some more (chocolate smooth is lush). I also ordered some Tri Carb. I am going to use this as a drink during the workout as it is supposed to give you more energy. This one is flavour summer fruits, so I'll let you know what it tastes like.
