First half of Turbo Sport 2 / Weber workout 3: Cardiovascular / Power Fit: Core-Core Express /

[Guest guest]

I got in a pretty intense hour tonite, starting with Turbo Sport 2, one of my favorite rounds of all!  I didn't do the turbo because of my knee but had a blast doing the workout to the cd, notes on whiteboard.

I finished off my cardio with Weber's Cardio Kettlebell Extreme 2, workout 3, which is around 7 minutes long called " Cardiovascular " .  You swing-like movements for all of the exercises, so your heart rate does indeed get up!

The last workout I dedicate to DONNA!    which was PowerFit: Harmony Disc 10:  Core - Core Express.  This 20 minute workout was challenging, and I was surprised!  You use a green pilates ribbon/band and my shoulders got a minor workout holding it over my head for some of the core exercises.  You start standing doing side bends with the band on one side for tension.  I grabbed low to make sure it was tense and I could feel it working!  There were balance moves such as bringing your leg from a back extension up to a high knee without touching the ground, bringing your arms holding the band down to meet the knee.   The second half is done on the matt, some standard gym style crunches and moves.

I wanted to do more for legs but my knee got re-wonked dancing at my high school reunion. Argh!  I watched Turbo Kick Round 41 and took notes on my white board and hope to do most of that to the cd next time I work out alone.  Tressia is coming over tomorrow and Thursday and I'd like to do 3 Powerfit - Harmony's with her since she is just getting back in to exercise and she likes working with the band:
