Day 39 - Max Recovery

The session started with a lot off with stretches, which surprised me as I am used to a warm up. However, the stretches gradually increased in pace so they did act as the warm up.

Once again there were a lot of new exercises and concentration was key. I managed to remember to contract the core whilst doing them and I felt the abs working.

Balance was very important, especially for one of the exercises where you had to go in to push up position, do 4/8 push ups, then place your feet next to each other and roll onto the side so you are balancing on one arm and one leg with the other leg resting on top (pic). This was not easy, but trying to balance on one arm after doing 8 push ups was really tough.

At the end of the workout was some abs work and I did enjoy those. You could feel the abs working hard and I'm sure I shall benefit from it.

Overall the workout went ok. A lot to learn once more and you did work up a slight sweat from all the work. Back on to the tough workouts tomorrow, 65 minute Max Interval Circuit that almost killed me last Sunday.
