Tuesday Workout



Today my time was spent on the Exercise Ball...
The workout was:
5 Rounds for time
30 Sit Ups on the Exercise Ball
25 Back Extensions on the Exercise Ball

This workout is usually done on a machine called the Glut-Ham Developer (GHD)
The sit ups are deceiving because they also work your Quads - when you are laying back in full extension, the move to get your body up involves a quick 'flex' of your quads - when done right, your torso comes flying up. If you choose to keep your legs relaxed and just try and 'sit up', it wears you out WAY before you are done.

I completed the entire workout in about 19 minutes... It is always a little squirrelly to try and keep your balance on the exercise ball - but it will do for now. :)
