Les Mills COMBAT: Day 5 - Shock Plyo HIIT 2

Here I go again. Back on the 30 minute track to reshaping my body with Les Mills COMBAT. Today's session is the Shock Plyo HIIT 2.

My plan today was to go above and beyond my Les Mills COMBAT workout and as tough as it was, I did just that.

Shock Plyo HIIT 2 is all about constant movement. I did squats, lunges, double lunges, ski hops, jump squats, suicides... heck, I can't even remember everything. And when I wasn't doing one of the aforementioned actions, I either ran in place with high knees or bounced from side to side. 

At the end of the workout, I did planks, side planks, cobra push-ups, and mountain climbers. I pushed through it and was drenched with sweat by cool down time. It was a great feeling.

However, I wasn't done. I wanted to push myself further with a little light weight training and core work. So after shutting off the DVD, I did:
  • Bench press - 3 sets of 20 at 70lbs
  • Leg extensions - 3 sets of 20 at 25lbs
  • Leg curls - 3 sets of 20 at 25 lbs
  • Upright row - 3 sets of 8 at 70 lbs
  • Ab roll out with Ab Wheel - 3 sets of 15
After all of that, I know I'm going to sleep well tonight. I feel great about pushing myself to the limit. I have nothing left to give and my body is worn out. I wanted to see if I could go further than my scheduled workout and I can.
