Training Log Archive: Tatty

It was one of those days!! Stereo was playing up something rotten. sam had to start several tracks again, and some the CD wouldn't work at all. She tried to do some old tracks but finished up doing most of the current release. Was tired after doing Pump so took the low option on virtually all the jumping jacks!!

Katie did lots of old racks which was very nice. However we let ourselves in for it electing to do the old triceps track. It is so difficult to keep my elbows in really tight. The dips at the end are evil. 14 dips is really killing on both the arms and shoulders!

Second day of Comic relisf at the Rapids. Wore the same outfir again, but gave up with the cloak part way through the warm up as it was a bit long and I was catching my feet in it. Only 4 of us had costumes on which was a shame. Sam worked us as hard as usual, although she did some old tracks, a couple of my favourites tto. The air conditioning was not on at the beginniing and it was VERY hot. The floor became slippoery so we escaped doing lunges!! Hooray!

A special Red nose Day Fancy Dress class tonight. loads of people had made the effort. some were cartton characters, others dressed in red. I went as Little Red Riding hood, which was easy using a red piece of fabric as a cloak and carrying a basket of pretend cakes. Had to take the cloak off to do the exercises though. Sassie worked us even harder than usual offering money for charity if we made a lot of noise. we raised £50!!

Lovely to do an Attack session having not been able to do one for two whole weeks. sam worked us very hard especially on the plyometris tracks. found the jumoing jacks hard, as usual. I always need the loo!! Good to be back, with Lisa back from her snowboarding holiday. Her injury looks horrendous!

first combat for a while so glad it wasn't too intense tonight. Sassie did her new mix again, so getting to know the old routines and how they follow on from each other. Find the sideways shuffles followed by scissor legs quite tricky. Getting more mobile and able to get lower when doing the decoy moves.

First time I've been to Pump for a couple of weeks. Was able to lift all my normal weights and even put on an extra yellow to do the Back track. The clean and presses were challenging, but I think I'll manage. However as soon as I left the studio my legs felt wobbly. Should improve as I do mopre classes this week. Certainly will only do one per night and on Saturday.
