Today's post is inspired by the soreness I'm feeling in my hamstrings right now! This morning I started a bootcamp at my gym. I'm going three mornings a week at 5:30 am for the next six weeks...eek! That's definitely early, early morning for me. Unfortunately (or fortunately? Isn't it the point?), I'm sore already. That almost never happens. Usually if I do get sore I don't feel it until a day or two later, but I knew this morning when we were moving quickly through our circuits that my butt was going to be dragging tonight--and I was right! I love being sore, though, because it makes me feel like I actually did something. I know I'll feel better at the end of this six weeks!
This photo is of my exercise ball (in front of the filled bookcase--it's a two-fer! Haha.). On this first day of bootcamp we repeated three 30-second intervals: a specific muscle group, cardio-burst, core work. We used a ball for a few of the core exercises as well as for stretching afterwards. My exercise ball usually lives out in the rumpus room beside the bikes, but it got to come out for a little photo shoot tonight!
