derby workout n' more!

so i have been doing some reading and with some help from a few people here that have degrees in stuff, have come up with an awesome routine!

in the morning i do assorted exercises with my stability ball (mostly abs and arms) and with my balance board which is ridiculously fun when you’re trying to have a conversation with someone. We’re going to throw some P90X abs in there too, every other day or so when the conference room isn’t being used.

Then lieutenant salmon wrote me up a derby specific workout!!! She is writing me another one tonight and we’re going to start doing them in the afternoon before we leave work. Today’s workout was three rounds of:

Clock lunges w/20ibs x10 ea
Dynamic step-ups x 15 ea
Front planks @30s x3
Pulsing lunges w/20lbs x 15 ea x3
Calf raises w/20lbs x20
Side planks @30s x3ea

I am still going to try and run a few times a week but I am going to start walking the perimeter of the camp with my medic bag every night.
It’s about six miles around and I will be carrying about a 35-40lb bag. Walk, walk, walky, walk.

Super excited.
And these are all things that you don’t need a gym for which I think is even better.

My barefoot shoes came in and I had to send them back. They were ½ size too small. It made me sad cause I was all ready to try them…
The new pair should be here in about a week or so.

Going to try and do the primal blueprint diet again too. It worked for me last time and I although I won’t be able to do it fully because of all the processed, persevered foods here I am going to try my best.

I also didn’t make it to see The Grey last night. It was thunder storming and I didn’t want to get soaked walking or on my bicycle.
It’s playing tomorrow so I’m going to leave work early so I can make it at 1600.
Woop!

Oh, and I’ll be home in a month, mushin my wub. <3
