that's cool you are being so supportive of your daughter.
today is a light exercise day for me. which is good because i'm really sore from yesterday! i did some pilates this morning and after work i have safety patrol, which means a walk around the neighborhood. i also want to fit in some skateboarding. it's a pain, because to really have a constructive practice, i have to go to a basketball court near my house - there is nowhere level enough at my house. so until i can deal with at least small hills, i have to trek over to the basketball court or another level surface. yesterday i got my first skateboarding injury - a small scrape. it was stupid of me - i put on my wrist guards but didn't bother with my knee or elbow guards because i was only going to fool around for a few minutes. unfortunately, it doesn't take long to fall and scrape my arm! i decided, screw the hill, i was going to skateboard down the sidewalk in front of my house. no problem until it was time to stop, which i don't know how to do. it was a good thing i had the wrist guards on though or i would have been seriously hurt. it's a lot easier to stop on a surf board!
food-
probably going to go get a tofu scramble wrap for breakfast, which will mean a light lunch. maybe a smoothie and fruit. T is going to make cauliflower, potato, tofu,
Since I only had three classes scheduled today I didn't have pace myself quite so much so I kicked everyone's butts, including my own, in my morning HIIT class. After that I did a couple sets per muscle group of moderate weight resistance training, then taught a weight training class. I guess I shouldn't have posted today's workout on the June challenge because I had forgotten that I still have yoga to teach (leaving right away as a matter of fact).
We started off with a little cardio warmup that included toe taps and heel digs, alternating knee up, rocking horse and walking up and around the BOSU.
-small and large jumps on the dome side -1/4 and 1/2 turn jumps around -one-legged balance stuff -back extensions/hip extensions with the stomach on the dome side -plank with hands on the flat side - there was a variation on this - get into plank position, take right leg, bring it up, then out to the side, draw knee into the body and then cross the knee over. We first did this with a break in between legs and then one set without a break! -kneel on dome side, extend 1 arm and the opposite leg -crunches -bridge with feet on flat side -v-sit (like teaser in Pilates)
