ZWOW 22 - I did it

WOOOO HOOOO!

That was very rough but did it in 12 minutes and 38 seconds.  Not doing the push ups with the burpees made a massive difference and I used a step this time rather than a bar stool.  I feel good.

I cycled 1km before and after too, just to keep my distances up on runkeeper.

I am pooped!!

ZWOW 22 = Epic Fail

So just 'attempted' to do ZWOW 22 and wow it is HARD.

Managed to get to 9 squat jumps before throwing in the towel, or to be more accurate throwing my interval timer across the room in a little paddy.

It got to the point where it was taking me the entire minute to do the 4 burpees with good form, Id just jump up on the final one, peek to see what exercise I was up to and the timer would go off, so back to the burpees Id go, after 3 times of this the interval timer felt the brunt of my anger as well as the floor.  I stomped upstairs to the shower in a huff.

Now that I have calmed down I feel like I should have taken 2 minutes to pull myself together and continue or just skip the burpees and just do the normal moves, but arent we always so smart with hindsight on our sides?  I have never lost my temper with a workout before so this just shows that either Im getting soft or this workout is hard as balls!!

I might try this again tomorrow (if I can lift my arms, owie), if not, this is a challenge for Monday.  I will complete it before ZWOW 23 is posted! I WILL!!

ZWOW Challenge?

So I been thinking and I really love challenges and Ive had an idea.

Once there is 30 ZWOW workouts I am going to do a ZWOW every day for a month, starting from 1 and going through to the end.

Anyone in?

Working out at home

So I am mega shy and would never workout in a gym unless I was super fit, I get a really RED face when I workout and I sweat and smell and my face jiggles when I run, not something I want to do in front of strangers.

So I workout at home.... except, I dont want to do those things in front of people I know either so I only ever workout when Im alone in the house, which isnt very often, hence the blog about being fat!

I know this is something I just need to get over but I dont know how.....
