Burning Bridges

I don’t know how many bridges were burned but the 43 today sure did make my butt and quads burn!!!

I did a bridge variation using this –

Handy piece of work-out equipment!!

a standard height/size bar stool.  (I think I prefer using it to sit at the bar but….)

I laid on my back on the floor and put my heels on the seat of the barstool.  This was like a bridge but a bit on the extreme side!!  Just trying to keep my hips up and in a straight line was challenging – then I started the 43.  I took 1 foot off and dipped it under the seat then repeated with the other foot.

(I know that I have on the same clothes as yesterday – that’s because Hunter made the demo yesterday since today I had to work-out at the butt-crack of dawn again!)

I would like to say that I counted a rep as one right foot moving and one left foot moving, however, that would be a complete lie!!!  I counted each time I moved a foot as 1 – I know, wimpy and shameful!  You try it, though!!!  It was a tough 43 but I will try it again and hopefully it will get easier!

I finally lifted again (5 days later).  Chalean Extreme Push Circuit 2.  I always feel like I’ve gotten a good work-out when I finish one of Chalean’s work-outs!!!

Today will be a fun-filled day spent in the school gym!!!  PE sub again – my favorite!!!

Happy Thursday!!
