September Is Going to be EPIC!!!

Today I started with a plan for my 43 and ended up having to do an extremely  modified version!!!  I used my BOSU & stability ball for some hard-core push-ups!! 

BOSU & stability ball

I put my legs on the stability ball and my hands on the upside down BOSU to do push-ups.  Not easy because the BOSU wobbles when it is upside down and the stability ball wants to roll every where – good for the core though because you have to work so hard just to maintain your balance.

My original plan was to put just my feet on the stability ball and roll the ball in close so that the push-up was more of a pike position – Um…..that move needs some serious work!!!

I did one of my favorite workouts – Turbo Fire!!!  Today I did Fire 45  – 45 minutes of nonstop cardio that is super fun because Chalean keeps the energy high and the music going!
