lower body work | Day With KT

Today I tried a move that completely intimidated me – a wall climb! Ever heard of it? I hadn’t either until the other day when 6 Pack Momma @ She Runs Everywhere did a little video demonstration. Well, that move did not end up being my 43!!! I did a grand total of 4!!!

And, even those weren’t very good because you are supposed to get your hands much closer to the wall and take yourself all the way to vertical – like I said – I was totally intimidated by this move!!!! A 43 FAIL!!!

So, for my real 43 I did a killer lower body move!!!

squat with feet together
stay in squat & step right leg out then back in
lift right knee
extend right leg (while your knee is up)
bring leg in & lower foot
Repeat (x 43)

And, once your left hip is totally burning and your quad is shaking (and you have completed all your reps!!!), switch legs and do some more – 43 more for me!!!

I decided to change things up with my workout today and do some yoga. I did Denise Austin’s Fat Burning Yoga. It was pretty good – a total of 60 minutes with plenty of strength work, core work and of course, flexibility. I can only take Denise in small doses but I usually like her workouts!!

And, because the past week has been full of extreme emotions I decided that it was time for some more humor over here!!!
