Yesterday evening, I went to a boxing class. I wanted to do something different than all the running I've been doing lately. I went to a class by the same instructor as I did last Friday, and the two cl plasses were pretty much identical. That reminded me of why I don't usually go to that instructor's classes very often. The combinations and exercises he does are pretty good, but it's boring to do exactly the same thing each time. I did feel like I had more energy than usual.
This morning I did the next workout in The Master's Hammer and Chisel program, and was Max Hammer Strength. This was an interesting workout. First, you did 60-sec of bodyweight moves to pre-fatigue a specific muscle, and then you did 8 reps of a similar move with as heavy weights as possible. It was kind of nice using the heavy weights, although I really needed heavier weights for some moves. I have individual dumbbells up to 25 lbs. Above that, I have old-fashioned adjustable plate dumbbells, which are annoying to use, and their shape is often inconvenient for a move. I think I may get some 30-lb dumbbells. In this workout, I burned about 90 calories.
This afternoon after work, I did an easy run on the treadmill. I ran at 5.7 mph for 1 hour, so the distance came to 5.7 mi. This was a boring run for some reason.
