Last night's workout, Wednesday, October 25th:

*bootcamp workout: 45 mins

New people bought the local gym a few months back.. and the lady is doing some wonderful things with the gym..... she's been working on a routine for 6 months that works out EVERY muscle in the body--- she narrowed it down to a 45 minute.. kick arse workout that is incredible....

*The workout is a mixture of step aerobics, kickboxing, calisthentics, weight lifting with free weights.. full body cardio workout for 45 mins which she calls the 'bootcamp' workout... and let me tell ya...it is TOUGH!!! The teacher's new name is 'Drill Sargeant'!! I really believe this workout is exactly the change that my body needs to step things up.. so.. I plan to fit this in twice a week along with running and elliptical...and hope to see some significant results in about 3 months..... SO yes... a new picture is very needed now....
