Boot Camp & Weigh In ~ Wed 22 Feb

A while ago I bought a scoopon for 30 sessions of boot camp for $30 or some great price (before I joined the gym and of course before I probably read most of the terms and conditions because the only time they run boot camps are at 6.15am)!!!  Errr there's a 6.15 in the morning now??? LOL

But I brave the morning I am up bright and early and I head off to boot camp.  I need to be up early as I am working with a friend at a Breast Cancer stand for Avon today so I figure get up early and get the monkey off my back! 

It was pitch black and I nearly didn't find the place.  I met the instructor who was probably younger than me and we had a quick chat but I was dissapointed that he didn't ask more questions about what I have done fitness wise etc.  I guess they don't really care at boot camp but still I really struggled to do a lot of the things he asked because I just wasn't fit enough.  At least he wasn't yelling at me like The Commando!  We did something called the K,K,K,K,K,run.

100 squats, 100 left leg lunges, 100 right leg lunges, 100 sit ups, 100 pushps and 1 K run.  He suggested to break it all up and do 10 of each and then go for a run to shake out the legs.  I did this first and then did 1 lap of the oval (approx 3 laps are 1 km however there also wasn't any line markings on the oval so I didn't know where I was going LOL).  After the first lap I realised I was pretty worn out so decided to just stay put and move through all of the excercises moving through different body parts.  

Surprirsingly I finished the sit ups and push ups and 80 of the squats and 60 each of the lunges.  But I did do 3 laps of the oval as he made sure we all did that.  I did enjoy it to some point but dissapointed that more people weren't there!

I also only burnt 332 calories so I guess a lot was toning so I will still take it as a workout!

Took a friend to Flinders Uni to show her the atmosphere.  I would become a student just so it's O Week every week.   I'm clever this time (well also as I didn't want to kill my friend) and we park in the level carpark right near the campus no hills to climb!  When we arrive we were both handed an icecream (they were giving out freebies every day) so we grab it I take a photo to send to hubby but then I opened it and ate it! 

OMG talk about a habit.  I should have said 'NO' but I just went into robot mode and picked up the icecream and ate it!  Here is a picture of the culprit!  Hmmm more calories needed to burn this little 'woops' off!!!
Then we take a walk around the we kept getting handed more free stuff (all non food now) so we just take it all and get home to inspect our loot.  Lot's of pens, pads and odds and ends.  We did enjoy our little day out LOL.

In the evening I went to Dance Funk at Blackwood Fitness.  We have the most amazing dance teacher who is just hyper bunny 101 and just never stops but she is fantastic!!!  I burnt 475 calories.  Phew!  Sweaty right there!  Then I drive down the hill superfast to go to ZUMBA with a friend as we have bought a scoopon deal together for 20 classes for $20! BARGAIN!!!

We laugh a bit at our unco and I sweat some more!  It was really stuffy in there.  I burnt 475 calories which I guess I felt a little dissapointed with but I'm not entirely sure of a lot of moves they are doing on the stage so don't feel that I can give it my all as they keep chopping and changing everything!

I weigh in today and WOO HOO a loss of  1.3kgs a total of 2kgs so far - yay!  Super Happy with that!!
