For my 43 today I did a move that Gina (the Fitnessista) had as part of a really cool 2,4,6,8,10 workout earlier this week.
To do the move, start in plank (arms extended) – lift your right leg and tap it down across your left leg then switch legs to complete 1 rep.

It took me 3:20 minutes (holding plank the whole time) to complete 43 reps! The hard part was trying not to rock my body or drop my hips (or stick my butt too high). If you add a boost to a normal plank – try this move!
Because I’ve sort-of slacked on workouts the past couple of days I decided to step it up a bit with Cathe XTrain – Tabatacise. I did all 5 Tabatas (killer!) then I did the 100 Rep challenges – 100 flat bench triceps (I used 8 pound dumbbells) & 100 bicep curls (10 pound dumbbells) – UGH!!! I finished with the Bonus Core #2.
When I finished Jordan said, “That looked hard – I’m never gonna do that!” (no school today & Chris is off so the gangs all here!!) OK, Jordan, whatever!! I did convince him to go for a walk with me yesterday afternoon so there is that!!
I’m looking forward to the weekend! The weather is supposed to be nice for a few more days (and then maybe snow on April 1 – what is that about?!), the NCAA basketball tournament is going on, Easter – time with all 3 of my boys – what more could anyone ask for?!
Happy Fun Friday – I hope everyone has a great weekend with family and/or friends!
