Hot 100

Bootcamp week 3, day 2.

Today was something called "Hot 100". The crazy ass drill instructor told us we'd be doing 100 of each exercise. Now is a good time to note that when I say 100, I actually mean 200, because the DI uses two (or sometimes four) counts. What did we work out you may ask? All upper body, and pretty much almost all chest. Push ups, wide push ups, tricep push ups, inverted push ups, one armed planks, and some weird back and shoulder exercise done lying down.
So why the "70" image? Because that's as far as we made it in the 45 minutes we had together. Now in all honesty I should have posted a picture of somewhere around 40...cuz that's about all i did. After the first set of exercises, I was feeling it. After the second, I was cashed. By the third cycle I had started to pause during the sets. Even though I didn't do all 70 (or 140 if were being honest) I did as many as my body would allow. There was a lot of shaking and sweating, and oddly a lot of heavy breathing. I was panting like a dog in August, very strange indeed.

Cest la vie. We'll see what tomorrow holds, but I can only hope it doesn't involve my upper body because I dont think it can take it.
