Things are heating up at the Adventure Boot Camp! Today we had the most awesome routine there could ever be to gain that svelte, toned body. We did a mix of circuits that worked our lower body, abs, and of course, we got a generous dose of cardio that was out to blast that fat away!
Not only that, but our Dirty Harry returned to retaliate against the fat that makes us miserable! He wasn't playin' around. As experienced today, there was nothing he wouldn't do to get even with the enemy! :)
We did an intense variety of squats and lunges as the main features. Lots and lots of pulsing, folks! Yeeh-hah! You know what that does to your muscles and bum? My legs and glutes didn't forgive me OR Dirty Harry for about 5 days! Couldn't walk or even bend over, but I was lovin' it. I'm gonna trade these Big Mac buns for a pair of sweet babycakes! Just watch the transformation.
Some of the squats that were ordered to obliterate the enemy were squat jumps, one legged squats, sit squats (against the wall), and our all favorite pulsing squats. Was this Squat Heaven or what? Think about that. That's a lot of solid work that was ramping up the fat burn before the holidays.
I think as Brian once again morphed into our favorite vigilante against the enemy, he decided to announce to our unwanted guest "Ole Fats," that he was no longer welcome to inhabit any of the Adventure campers. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the enemy, real cold blooded like. If you know Dirty Harry you know he was itchin' for the opportunity to say those three little words! If Ole' Fats knows whats good for him, he better get out of Dodge now. Pronto! LoL!
Wasn't a pretty picture, folks. Do you think this valiant fat fighter was taking the shot gun approach? Yeah, baby. Poor Mr. Fats didn't stand a chance against The Brian! He was gonna get blown away on this day!
I'd say this was a hostile takeover.
In addition to the squats, Mr. Fats was eradicated with a full circuit of lunges, step ups, jumping over cones, and other cardio and leg exercises. To make certain that our detested visitor was not welcome, our crusader bombarded all that jiggly stuff in the middle with great ab work like side planks, push downs, and side bends. It was awesome!
By the time our hard core lawman blew the smoke from his gun, nodded, and drew a slow smile as he called it a day, I felt like I had The Special Reinforcement Unit from the Rangers surrounding all the pockets of jiggly that didn't stand a chance on this day!
I had chosen to up my intensity and picked up my higher weights, alternating between 8 & 10 lbs. Oh, baby! 3 hours later and through the rest of the week, I was sore, achin', and incapsulated in majestic pain! It hurt so good. I swear, it must have been Dr. Feelgood that left me his calling card.
Now, because the energy was high, the endorphins were kickin' in, The Star and I decided to run the mile for practice. As you know, Star has been running quite regularly, but I was grateful that she offered to run with me now, because, friends, it really does make a difference!
She set her watch and we leisurely ran the distance to complete in 9:34 minutes! Is that right? It just keeps getting better and better! Now all I got to do is hire someone to run with me when Brian times us for our final Mile Run! Hee-hee!
So this was my glorious day on this Wednesday, feeling confident that inch by inch, I was gonna make my way to the top. Nothing gonna stop this pink tiger! As long as I had plenty of patience, determination, support, and reinforcement from my allies, I was gonna win this war against Ole' Fats.
And with Dirty Harry on my side? It wasn't gonna be a pretty sight. Oh, not at all World. Before he swaggered out the door, he just crumpled up his mouth, pulled out his shotgun and mumbled under his breath with squinted eyes, "Go ahead....make my day!"
Ole' Mr. Fats should have known better. ;)
Until next time, this is............
......the pinK tiger...........
......gettin' ready to blow smoke from her gun, too!
