Year of the Body: Day 4

Submitted by on January 4, 2011 – 10:57 am No Comment

Great leg workout today.  I also discovered another modification that pushes the caloric burn…ready…jump rope.  I started with 200 skips, followed by 10mins on the treadmill, then I went into the movement exercises.  Very good workout.  I am writing from work now, but I am quite sure that I will feel them going down the stairs as I did coming back in from the work out.

Generally feel good.  Went by medical today and got my BP checked – 90 ish/60 ish.  This was about a hour and a half after my workout, aside from a bit sore, I felt fine.  Good livin’
