Nike Training Club and Boston

As I am typing this post, I am currently watching CNN on the sickening event that happened today during the Boston Marathon. My heart goes out to the families and friends who were affected. I am also thinking of the runners, who trained so hard for this big day and the only memory they will remember from it will be a bad one. </3


Today's workout consisted of a 30 minute ellipitical at cross country setting, Day 7 of Squat Challenge (80!) and a workout from my Nike Training Club app.

I used the Nike Training Club app alot last summer but then it kinda got forgotten about. Oops.
So today, it got dusted off and brought back to use!

Nike Training Club app is like having a personal trainer in your phone. You pick from 4 different options (lean, tone, strong, focused) then pick a level (beginner, intermediate, advanced) with all custom-built workouts.

I chose to do a 45 Get Lean-Advanced workout called Pioneer.

The workout looked like this:

(*you will need a jump rope, dumbbells, medicine ball, step, mat)

• 2 minute light jog
• 2 minutes of straight leg kicks
• 1 minute of slidand glide
• 1 minute recover
• 1 minute of wood chops
• 2 minutes of 2 feet lateral hops distance
• 2 minute alternating medicine ball push up---* I did a set of push ups in replace of this
• 2 minute opposite arm/leg supermans
• 1 minute jump rope
• 1 minute recover
• 2 minute plank row--split this into two 1 minute planks
• 2 minute broad jumps
• 2 minute Russian twists
• 2 minute walking lunges
• 1 minute jump rope
• 1 minute rocover
• 2 minute opposite arm/leg extension
• 2 minute dips with legs straight
• 2 minute crazy ivans
• 2 minute push away balance--* I did 2 minutes of various ab workouts
• 1 minute jump rope
• 1 minute recover
• 2 minute single leg deadlift dumbell row
• 1 minute tuck jump
• 2 minute push away balance--*again, did 2 minutes of various ab workouts
• 1 minute toe touch

• 2 minute standing hamstring stretch

Good night everyone!
