I torsdags morse var det dags att träffa Jenny igen, efter bara en veckas semester... =) Jag hade dessutom varit sjuk och inte gjort någonting på två dagar, vill inte träna med halsont och förkylning... Men vi hade ett digert pass framför oss, eftersom vi var tvungna att gå igenom de övningar jag behöver för att klara julen då jag inte har tillgång till något gym. Mina beställningar har som tur var kommit, så jag tog med mitt Jungle Gym så att Jenny skulle få kolla på det och visa mig hur det ska användas. Blir kanske en TRX sedan istället, det verkar mycket bättre! Kettlebellen fick dock stanna hemma, den släpar jag inte på i onödan och Jenny har ju en precis lika fin. =)
Innan Jenny kom så traskade jag på 15 minuter på cross-trainern, vilket är väldigt givande förbränningsmässigt och det är väl det enda roliga med den! Men det är tillräckligt för att det verkligen ska vara värt det...
Sedan blev det verkligen The Monster Within, både från min och Jennys sida -- hon har aldrig gett mig ett så tufft program! Den här gången var det 3 (!!!) cirklar med 6 övningar i varje och vi körde "bara" två varv på varje, så det var ju en light-variant av de 3 varv jag ska köra på hemmaplan...
Uppvärmningsövningar/rörelseträning:
*Roll out (Jungle Gym, suspension training)
*Long torso twist (Jungle Gym)
*Lower Back Stretch (Jungle Gym)
*Lower back stretch w. rotation (Jungle Gym)
*Hip drop (Jungle Gym)
*Benböj med händerna under tårna
*Höftbörjarstretch (a.k.a Grodan)
Cirkel 1:
*Kettlebell thrusters
*Tåhävning
*Armhävning på knä
*Kettlebell marklyft med hakdrag
*Bred rodd (Jungle Gym)
*Lårcurl på boll
Cirkel 2:
*Kettlebell swing
*Smal rodd (Jungle Gym)
*Utfall bakåt (Jungle Gym)
*Kettlebell Halo
*Bron (bäckenlyft med små steg)
*Russian twist m. kettlebell
Cirkel 3:
*Burpees
*Magliggande enbenslyft på boll
*Armhävningar på boll
*Kettlebell tvåhandsryck
*Pullover på boll med kettlebell
*Crunches på boll
Jag var helt död efteråt!!! Då tyckte Jenny att vi skulle köra en cirkel med de 5 VÄRSTA övningarna, så jag visste vad jag skulle göra om jag hade ont om tid någon dag och behövde komprimera min träning...
Cirkel 4:
*Kettlebell thrusters
*Burpees
*Kettlebell marklyft med hakdrag
*Kettlebell tvåhandsryck
*Russian twist med kettlebell
Underbart!!! Jag kan säga att det gick i SNIGELFART hem, jag var helt yr och fick knappt fram den ena foten framför den andra. Försökte prata med Anders i telefonen samtidigt och förklara mitt öde, det var svårt... Träningsvärken kom dagen efter och framförallt i låren, det svider fortfarande på baksida lår så jag vill gråta! =D
Men förhoppningsvis hjälper detta program till att hålla julmaten i schack! =) Det är ny vägning första tillfället efter jullovet, d.v.s 9/1, så det gäller att jag ligger i! Man känner sig bra tuff när man klarat av ett sådant här pass! Enligt Jennys uträkning så ska uppvärmning + 3 varv av varje cirkel ta ca 60 minuter... See you on the Dark Side!

Trying New Things...
Well, I know since long ago that I hate training if it takes too much time and/or effort to get there. Once there, I love it, but if I have to take the car or tube or whatever to get there--I'm likely to invent whatever reason not to go...
So, the best training is the one that gets done, right? Therefor jogging/running would be perfect for me! Just one teeny tiny problem: I hate it. Well, I used to hate it and then I loved it and now I kind of hate it again... But that's just because I've gotten really comfortable here in my comfort-zone since I met Anders. Sorry love, but you really messed up my training... =) Time to change all that now and I've been through many ideas over the past few weeks as to HOW to get me back in to it. Last year, I decided to start running and since I need to compete and never do anything without a tough goal, I set the goal to run The New York Mini 10 K for women... The plan was to run 1 K three times a week the first month and then add 1 K each month. That went really well, until November and 3 K--when I met Anders. Lost focus, lost the will to try and lost track of everything not related to Anders... It's sweet to be in love, but my, it makes you stupid! =)
Since then I haven't really even tried running. But, now's the time to change that and first I thought about doing it the same way again, but I changed my mind. See, where I used to live, we had great tracks on soft ground that felt good under my feet. Where I live now I don't. I can only run on asphalt here and that is not at all as nice... Since I'm so heavy I'm also a little worried about my knees and legs on this hard surface. So, I plan to invest in some really good shoes and also: take it slowly. I know myself--I push too hard and then give up when it get's too tough. Not this time. For 2 weeks (starting Monday) I will do intervals (jog 1 mins/walk 2 mins) at least 3 K's 3-4 times/week and then do 1*1 for 2 weeks and see the results on that.
I tried it today on my regular 6,5 K walk with the dogs, the last 3 K's I jogged 1 minute and walked 2 minutes all the way. Felt really good--but I need to constantly think about my posture, opening up and straightening up to breathe easier and better and to help my body as much as possible.
I'll get back to you on the progress... =)
My goals are these: manage 2 K's in 10 minutes by week 25 and I've also decided to sign up for ToppLoppet here in Stockholm on September 22:nd! It's a 5 or 10 K run in Hagaparken and it'll be my first competion ever...
If you haven't read ToppHälsa, give it a try, best ever in my opinion!
