Good Morning

Wow, it is a lovely and eventful Saturday. I had to get out for some grocery shopping and then get the tire puncture done for my bike. All of the work was done but for my exercises. Hmm. I thought noon (our time) was too late to be getting into exercising mode, but then you know…. that good part of me which nowadays expects me to be on with my exercise, it got me today too. 😊

So, I did workout, and this post will be explaining what I did.

Yesterday evening with lil Colonel was great. She enjoys everything in our schedule but the side planks and warm-up. But then she powers through it, nonetheless.

Here is what we did:

1. Warm-up: About a minute
2. Suicide-drill: 2 Sets
3. Shuttle-run: 1 set with 4 reps
4. Jumping-jacks
5. Wall-sits
6. Push-ups
7. Crunches
8. Step-ups
9. Squats
10. Tricep Dip
11. Planks
12. High Knees
13. Lunges
14. Push-ups and Rotation
15. Side Planks – each side
16. Langdi

As most would know by now, this was the longer version of our evening schedule, and, of course, Langdi at the end of it. 😊

Morning schedule was focused on abs today. I had mentioned in my earlier post that I will be resorting to abs every alternate day, and that is what I am doing. Here are my abs specific triplets.

1. 1-set Crunches
2. 1-set Reverse Crunches
3. 1-set obliques

I did five sets of the triplets and then a five minute focused obliques related exercise. Since I had a lot of work outside our home, I did about a kilometre of walking, and that was awesome. Let the lockdown end, and I will get going with my morning runs. Those are sorely missed.

Anyway, I will get on with it soon, but for now, see you all! Namaste!

And wish you all a lovely day!!

Did You Know?

Mario Silvestri of Italy holds the Guinness World Record for most burpees in a minute. He did 47 burpees in 60 seconds.

That’s almost 3 burpees every 4 seconds. Phew!

How do you fancy doing 47 burpees a minute? Or how many can you do in a minute? Let me know in the comments.
