Boot Camp: The Finale

So last Wednesday was our last session of boot camp, so Kitty and I are going to have to figure out what to do with our Wednesdays while still getting a nice long workout.   The last routine that we did was a 40/20 interval circuit with 6 stations and we only did 5 rounds of it.

• The first station was slam ball

•  The second station was TRX Rows

•  The third station was a TRX plank-You put your hands in the handles, toes to the ground and plank at whatever angle is most comfortable to you.  I didn’t like these at all because the straps were digging into my arms, so I did a regular plank for the last three rounds. 

•  The fourth station was jumping jacks

•  The fifth station was a vertical push up-He had us put our hands on this thing that looked like a dip station cut in half and put on it’s side.  Then we were supposed to stick our butts up in the air and do the “push up” downward into the ground.  It sort of reminded me of a monkey push up.  I didn’t like these at all because using the bars hurt my palms and doing it on the ground made my wrists sore.  It was supposed to work our shoulders and triceps, but it was quite ineffective because it was making other parts of my body hurt before I got any sort of burn. 

•  The sixth station was a backward lunge

 We ended the entire routine with squat count downs like the first boot camp I ever did.
