30 Day Challenge Day 27 - Shoulder Death
Day 27!! I can't believe there are only 3 more workouts in this challenge. So far, my biggest positive change is that I am consistently working out again. I've said before that if I were strictly following the nutrition guide, I know I'd have drastic results, but I'm not. However, my pants are fitting looser!
Today's workout was fun, and it killed my shoulders! I did not do active rest, because I like logging reps, & planned to jump rope afterward.
Workout Breakdown
Video
4 Exercises - 3 Rounds
Timer: Set 12 rounds of 50 seconds of work + 10 seconds of active rest
What you Need
> Sand Bag (I used a set of 8 lb dumbbells, but this could be done bodyweight)
> Timer
1) Pendulum 70 - 60 - 61
2) Power Blumpkin Walk (= 4 crab walks + 4 crab toe touches) 6+2 walks - 6.5 - 6
3) Low Step Back (=a weighted squat into a backward lunge, staying low the entire time) 20 - 20 - 21
4) Wall Touches (= plank, alternating touching the wall with your hands) 35 - 36 - 32
I followed this with 16 minutes of jump rope (4 Tabata sets. 1 Tabata interval = 8 rounds of 10 sec rest + 20 sec work for a total of 4 min per set)
How did you like Day 27? What changes have you noticed in yourself so far?
