♥ SMART Quest ♥ Sat. April 23, 2011

Week 6, Day 6
My SMART Quest for today is:  Be good today for tomorrow is Easter 7 my reward meal day!  I am looking forward to it as I have been so good with my eating.  actually I have not eaten as much as I should, so I plan to have a good meal but not over do it!


SLEEP:   7  hours - I went to bed  at 12:30 am , awoke at 7:30 am
AWOKE: 7:30 am
WARM UP: 8:00 am
Push Ups x 12
Squats x 12
Spiderman Climbs x 12 total
Jumping Jacks x 20
Performed 2 rounds of this circuit
Today I am doing a series of  5 Tabata Intervals based on Scott Colby's Ageless Abs 2 Program!  I am still adding extra time to the intervals and I continue to try and do more advanced moves.    Instead of doing 20 seconds on - 10 seconds rest, I am doing 30 seconds on 10 seconds rest.


5 Tabata Intervals
These are timed Intervals:  Set your Gymboss Timer to 2 intervals of 30 seconds & 10 seconds and 8 rounds.  Each round is 5:20 minutes/seconds. 


Side to Side Ski  Jumps - 30 seconds on, 10 seconds rest x 8 rounds - 95, 98, 97, 98, 98, 97, 97, 96 reps per round.  I felt like I was dragging a bit, but went as fast as I could.  Really got my heart rate up and running!
8 Count BOSU Body Builders - - 30 seconds on, 10 seconds rest x 8 rounds - 5, 5.5, 5.5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5  reps per round! .  Still felt like I was a bit slower than last time! 
Jumping Jacks -
 30 seconds on, 10 seconds rest x 8 rounds - 44, 44, 46, 45, 45, 46, 45, 45 reps per round!  

Side Jump Kicks with Side Squats (with ankle weights)  - 30 seconds on, 10 seconds rest x 8 rounds - 4 rounds per leg. Left Leg: 19, 20, 20, 19 reps per round, Right Leg: 19, 17, 17, 17 reps per round!  Oh my goodness this was difficult.  Every round got harder and the weights felt heavier.

Knee Hugs (from Zuzana's BodyRock.tv, see photo below) - 30 seconds on, 10 seconds rest x 8 rounds - 14, 11, 10, 9, 10, 8, 9, 9 reps per round! I must like the punishment of doing these as a Tabata!  It was hard last 2 times and this time was still very difficult! Ouch!

I ate well this day.  I did not over do it and ate healthy!  Looking forward to tomorrow!  Happy Easter!
