Day 3 (of 30)

The second day is always the worst...
You're stiff from the first days exercises which shocks your body and it definitely makes you suffer when you start with the next days exercise! Nevertheless, we still managed to complete our exercises - although our effort level was more at 70% than the 95% on Monday night. Our exercises composed of the normal stretches followed by a series of Kung Fu style kicking, which kills your abs but also aids in suppleness.
We then did toning exercises with 2kg weights on the arms followed by another martial art exercise called "Mabu" or horse stance, where you go down just above your haunches and hold it there for as long as you can - we managed 30 seconds and will increase by 10 seconds every time we do it.
The last thing we did was push ups, sit ups and the plank position for 30 seconds which we will also increase in 10 second intervals.
10 more days until we start the gym routine and in that time we have to strengthen our core muscles as well as any other muscle group we can, in preparation for the 5k run. I have a goal of completing 5ks in 30 Min's and Ty has the same goal.

Tonight's plan:

• Stretches
• Kicking
• Punching
• Weight training

We forgot to do the pictures and measurements so we will get on that as soon as we can.

There's no other day like today, no more procrastinating.
