Richard Gibney's 365 Days of Fitness: Day 204

Day 204 Last week I was able to get access to one of the Glencoe's fitness studios for my group. It was actually a really nice change of pace, especially from a programming perspective. I was able to get access to some equipment I couldn't bring outside, so I was able to through in some extra added variety.

Last week, I didn't get to join in the circuit because I had to coach people through the session. Today however, I was able to take part. My group was familiar with the set-up, so we were able to get things going without needing too much direction from me.

Today's Workout:

60 seconds per exercise

  • Spin Bike (Standing) - Gear 24
  • Kettlebell Swing - 16kg
  • Jam Ball Slams - 30 lbs
  • Strength Band Resisted Sprint
  • Battle Ropes
  • Squat Jumps
  • TRX Squat to Row
  • Bosu Push-ups
  • Wall Balls - 20lbs
  • Dumbbell Jumping Jack Shoulder Press - 10lbs
  • DSL Ball Standing Twist
  • Kettlebell Alternating Lunge - 10 kg
  • Aerobic Step Straddle Jumps
  • Ab Bicycle

I wanted to do 3 rounds of the circuit like the rest of my group, but I had a last minute participant show up, so I gave up my spot after the 1st round. I still got in a really challenging workout. The strength band resisted sprint, battle rope, squat jump sequence was especially challenging. In all I think the workout was a great success tonight. The music was blasting, people were giving great efforts, and the energy was fantastic.

I think tomorrow, I'll get out of the gym altogether and go for a run. The weather is supposed to be nice, and I haven't gone out for a run in a bit. I think I'll end up running quite a bit Ireland, so probably not a bad idea to get my legs feeling up to it.
