Les Mills COMBAT: Day 2 - Power HIIT 1

When did 30 minutes become such a long time?

Thirty minutes was long yesterday with the COMBAT 30: Kick Start and it seemed longer today with the Power HIIT 1.

Once again, I struggled. Still... I finished.

First off, I had to do a bit of improvising since this workout requires weights and I didn't realize that until I started the DVD. So, I quickly grabbed my 7.5-lb plates and jumped right in.

Power HIIT 1 is weight training and cardio at the same time. I worked every bit of my body and finished with a nice coating of sweat. My body isn't too happy right now since we still feel the effects of yesterday's workout.

An intense battle grew between my mind and body throughout the workout. I had to pause the DVD several times to take a few extra breaths and grab a sip of water. All the while, I wanted to call it quits. I kept pushing. When the workout got to the cool down phase, both my mind and body were grateful to reach the end.

Now as I sit here, eating leaves of spinach like I'm at a dinner party thrown by the Golden Child, I'm happy with what I accomplished in 30 minutes. Tomorrow is a new day and brings with it POWER 45: Power Kata. There is more fun to be had and I'm ready for it.
