Imagine me saying that like the guy from the Saw movies. I feel like today's boot camp could have been part of one of the movies. Just kidding. Kind of. There was a lot of complaining and whining, from me mostly.
Today was different in that we played a "game" instead of having what Natalie calls "centers". We took a deck of cards and each suit had a exercise associated with it. I don't remember what was what but it was burpees, prison squats, mountain climbers and v-ups. The number card you drew was the number of reps. The ace means a minute of said exercise. Clever. There was a small amount of mercy shown in that everyone had 1 veto, but when I say small amount, I mean a small amount... you had to choose another exercise to do instead. Which got sketchy because there aren't a ton of exercises that I love that a group can do. I wish "resting" was an exercise. I felt like at one point Darin had removed the low number cards because we kept getting 9s and 10s and I'm not good with cards. But it felt like a lot. I asked if he had removed the low cards and he didn't, so he claimed. I feel like we weren't playing with a full deck. Take that as you will. At one point Darin got a veto, which, I feel like there should be rules. Like you have to participate to get the veto power. But unfortunately I do not make the rules. We did 2, 10 second negative push ups. First of all, that's a realllllllllly long time. But at least it wasn't prison squats. There were plenttttyyyy of those. Plenty. Natalie, Amber, Becky and I were grouped up on the red mats. When we did v-ups we made a star formation. Cute little stuff like that makes me happy haha, you do what you gotta do to survive. Though at the end we did a 30 second plank and my mat slipped out from under my feet and I came down kinda hard. That was a less than optimal dismount from a plank.
I burned 502 calories from boot camp before 9:30am. So I mean, at least my workout was out of the way and I feel like I did okay. I'm really tired and Rebecca and I both had a few choice words today getting out of the car at home haha. My legs are feeling kinda sketchy, but hopefully a nice nap will cure all. But I doubt it.
