Before Mike Tyson gets wind of this post and tries to hunt me down and hurts me, I don't ACTUALLY think I can hit as hard as he can. Pretty close....but I need a little more practice. :)
As you have probably already guessed we boxed today at BC! I LOVE boxing but it is the hardest workout. No wonder those professional boxers look so fit! We only did it for 45 minutes and I lost half my body weight in sweat!
Molly and I partnered up and we had to do a sequence where Molly jumped rope while I had to box. I had to finish 100 jabs, 50 uppercuts, 15 push ups, 15 jump squats, and 200 fast punches (might have screwed up the order of those, but you get the picture!) before Molly could stop jumping rope....bless her heart. When I finally finished, she walked over to me and said, "You might want to hit the restroom before jumping"....ah, she knows me too well (if you are new, please refer to my Bladders, Boot camp, and Babies post to grasp the severity of what happens while doing any sort of jumping at BC).
Side note to all my fellow BC GIRL members: avoid the restroom right next to the lockers. I learned the hard way that it is definitely the MALE bathroom- no toilet paper and the sink doesn't work....lliterally every man's dream and every woman's nightmare.
It wouldn't really be a complete day at BC if I don't have some sort of spaz issue or klutzy fall, so here it goes: I probably look like a dog (no opposable thumbs) when I put on, and take off, my boxing gloves. Josh had to keep telling me like 3 minutes in advance of when it was my turn to box so I could get my gloves on in time. And because I apparently have no ability to get them off by myself, I did all my ab work while still wearing them. How awesome did I look Side Planking and doing Sprinter Sit Ups with big red boxing gloves on? Well, I was called "Captain Kangaroo" and "Impossible" several times - so that should answer THAT question.
Contemplating the 5:30am class tomorrow.....I obviously must have hit my head during today's workout!
High Point: Got to watch Molly box and now have a visual goal of what I want my arms to look like - she's so buff!
Low Point: Took almost 10 minutes to wash my hair today because my arms are so freaking tired! Sorry to everyone that stands next to me tomorrow- I don't really know if my whole head got washed.....
