10 weeks - Getting Strongerrrr

Yesterday was the 10 week mark. I'm feeling dangerously good :) So good that my body starts doing kicks and other karate motions while working out. My range of motion is getting better and better. It will be interesting to see if this leg will have more ROM than the other. It kind of feels like that now but I can't really push it yet. Once I'm able to throw round kicks and side kicks I'll be able to tell.

Lately I've added the elliptical, lots of balance training including single leg mini bends on the small balance trainer. Also, lateral shuttle, high knees moving fwd with hip tilt, butt kicks, front kick and side kick iso squeezes on the balance trainer, lots of stretching. I even did about 4 katas the other day (slowly) along with some light bag training (punches / strikes only), as well as various striking drills. Furthermore, since being introduced to balance trainers I've been doing a lot of core work (cause it's so darn cool on the balance trainers). I have the Bosu and the small balance trainer that looks kind of like an inflated frisbee   In addition, I have been working a lot on upper body with the TRX, and pullup bar as well as core push ups on the Bosu :)

I have been working out about 6 days a week and am starting to lean out. I love this regiment!

• Soak in the hot tub - roll all muscles with a pvc pipe and stretch
• bike for about 5-10min
• elliptical for about 5-7min
• all of my PT with upper body and core included 
• stretching, and massage stick work throughout the workout
• finish up w/extended tabata sprints on the airdyne (30 on 10 off for 5min)
• ice bath 5-10min
