Today was the first day of the boot camp that a friend and I signed up for about a month ago. We had been putting it off but I figured I needed to get in my month before I head to Vegas next month. At least I can feel good on my birthday. Anyhoo we arrived and kick off our shoes as instructed. Yeah this guy likes you barefoot. We sat filled out paperwork and watched one of his classes finish up. These folks were hanging from the chin-up bar timing themselves. Finally that class was over and he started our 8 minute workout. Yes 8 minutes, that's all. Dude had us do speed skaters, some crazy form of a push up, swinging a medicine ball over my head then stand up and burpees (I think that is what they were called), 20 seconds each with a 10 second break 4 times. When we were finished I had sweat running down my back. It felt like I had exercised for an hour. I could hardly sit in the chair to put on my shoes because my thighs, legs and butt were throbbing. I can only imagine if I were to keep up with something like this I would be looking svelte in no time. We figured that we would go twice a week and then to his core class on Sundays. I just can't believe that 8 minutes kicked my butt like this. 8 minutes? Seriously 8 minutes? Now that I have soaked my bones I am ready to pass out, everything hurts. Seriously, am I really exhausted after only 8 minutes? I can't wait for more. Bring It Tom!!!
Peace, Love and Chocolate
