Upped weight for 2nd round of Over the Top and increased reps in Pull ups and Burpees = Yay.
Did much better in Glute Chisel too today so pleased with improvements and increases.
Love it!

H&C Chisel Cardio and 15min Glute Chisel
Phew!! I forgot how great this one is - gets your heart rate up with very little impact. Went light first round and heavier on the second.
It's ages since I've done any kettlebell swings and it felt great to get on the pull up bar too ;)
Who'd have thought that putting your foot on a ball would make that much difference to so many moves. The Split lunge - OMG what a burner! And those Single leg bridges on a ball - I was doing them in Shift shop with 8kg / 17lb on my hips so no weight should be easy but OMG on that ball was soooo different!! Nice one Chisel!!!

22MHC Chisel Cardio
Really pleased with this one tonight - felt much easier than I remember. Especially the burpees lol I got more than I've ever done all thanks to 22 Min Hard Corps ;)
Been thinking hard about my programming for the next few weeks and I was going for a good variety of workouts but to build the muscle we want progressive overload right? so although I should probably do Bodybeast Sagi annoys me little in the dvd's so I think it's back to P90X for me with maybe some Beast back so I can get some deadlifts in too (because P90X legs and back every single week gets little repetitive).I might shake up the cardio days and throw in some 22MHC too to keep my fitness level up.
Don't think my app was counting calories correctly for the first 25 mins or so it said 45 cals..erm nope!!! But never mind hey, I'm sure they will fix it in the next update.

MHC - Chisel Cardio
After two days rest and not as good quality sleep as I'd like I got Chisel Cardio done today but didn't go crazy hard with some of the legs stuff, went a little lighter on the 2nd round than last time I did it = more cardio effect which was the aim of the game lol.
Might do some yoga tomorrow then chill on sunday ready to get back to it on monday. I will then have moved my sunday rest day to match the thursday rest day from the calendar - may it will help.

MHC - Chisel Cardio and 15 min Glute Chisel
So loved this cardio today, I upped my weights and also got personal best on my burpees wahoo! Boy was I sweating today omg!!
My deluxe dvd arrived today so as it was on the calendar as an option - I added the 15 min Glute Chisel and wow!!!
I was pretty tired after 3 heavy leg days but I thought I'd see how it went and it was tough on very tired legs. I did about half of it overall and I was toast but the last move - 1 leg bridge on a medicine ball and for a start I couldn't get my but off the ground!! I pushed really hard and after a real real struggle I managed only 4 reps on each side - Chisel wanted 25!!! OMG x 10!!!!
And just a word of warning this isn't just Glutes at all - it's lower body plus you have a medicine ball in your hand so you get a shoulder workout in there too!!!
Brutal but brilliant!!!
It took me to the hour which I was really chuffed about and with my stretch afterwards I burnt over 600 cals!!!

MHC - Chisel Cardio
Wow cardio but not as we know it!!!!
No furious jumping around on this cardio workout - except a few burpees that is! Brilliant workout!!
I did assisted chin ups instead the prescribed pull ups in this as we've done so many pull ups that I thought some chin ups would be more beneficial, especially for me as I'm stronger at them so I could more done giving more of a cardio effect for me.
Loved it!!! Didn't give me the same cardio high I get from T25 or Insanity but a great cardio workout that is easy on the joints ;)
