Monday, 4/14
Rest - I was feeling pretty negative and decided to just spend the night in bed.
Tuesday, 4/15
Total Body Strength class (60 minutes)
I'm so glad I decided to go to class despite worrying about my foot. The instructor changed it up and we did circuits. I loved the workout so I'm recording it here!
Warmup
(Reps: 40, 30, 20, 10)
Jumping jacks
Squat jumps
Mountain climbers
Jumping jacks
Squat jumps
Mountain climbers
Burpees (10 each round)
First circuit (core):
Reps: 20, 15, 10
Russian twists with weight
Full body crunches
Vertical leg crunches
Planks
Superman holds
Second circuit (chest and back)
4 rounds of 10 reps
Pushups on bosu ball (I did these on my knees)
Bent over rows
Chest press
Chest fly
Third circuit (biceps and triceps)
4 rounds of 10 reps
Bicep curls on bosu ball
Tricep dips
Upright rows
Shoulder press
Fourth circuit (legs)
4 rounds of 10 reps
Weighted squats on bosu ball (I ended up doing these on the floor because I felt a little foot pain)
Alternating weighted lunges
Stability ball hamstring curls
Weighted calf raises
I haven't done the hamstring curls since my personal training days back in 2010...I HATE THEM!! My hamstrings hurt after doing just one. Obviously that means I should be doing more exercises for my hamstrings, but I really do not like them.
Wednesday, 4/16
Yoga: 60 minutes
I went to the doctor in the morning and found out I do not have a fracture in my foot! He said it's likely some "severe bruising" so I should take at least 1-2 weeks off of running and only do low impact activities that don't bother my foot. I don't want to get my hopes up because I lose my running stamina insanely fast, but maybe I'll be able to run the half in a month. So far (a week later) the foot has not improved, so we'll see.
Thursday, 4/17
Cross training: 30 minutes fast bicycling, 10 minutes stairclimber (using this machine, it is tough!!)
10 minutes abs, 10 minutes foam rolling
I'm going to attempt to keep up my fitness levels by doing some low impact cardio. I don't really enjoy bike riding and find it difficult to push myself unless I'm in a spin class. I did try for 30 minutes though so that's a start. I'm not sure what the equivalent to running should be...I should do some research.
