Today was Cardio day again. 47 minutes...not too bad for the first 20-30, but then, it kicks into high gear pretty hard. I'm still not doing the full workout due to my ab issue, but can do most of it. Just not doing the push-ups, "bananas", or wacky jacks. For those who have never heard of wacky jacks, they are an illegitimate offspring of jumping jacks. Legs apart and hands up, elbows bent, and shoulders straight out. Then it's a side-to-side movement. Tough to master and definitely wacky. Also much fun to watch. Still a lot of work, so aside from the humor in my lack of coordination, not a lot of fun to do (last week, when I could still at least attempt everything.)
Happy to say that my abs are feeling much better and no longer hurting 24/7. Only when I move in certain ways, so that is a HUGE step in the right direction. I am doing my best to modify the workouts and not put any extra stress on them so that they continue to heal. In the meantime, I am doing extra weights and cardio to make up for it.
Back to 5 a.m. workout in the morning and have to leave extra early for work tomorrow...6:45 at the latest. Ugh. Will be fun getting up in the morning after getting to "sleep in" the past 2 days.
