Tonight's scheduled Tapout workout was Force Upper Body, but everything in my upper body was pretty sore today from all the plank work in Cross Core Combat, so I decided to try To the Mat Legs & Glutes from Cathe's ICE series. I hate lower body workouts, so I'm in search of one that I can do regularly without dread. This wasn't it :o . It wasn't horrible, but I'm going to keep going through my collection until I find something that clicks. I will definitely be feeling it tomorrow, so it wasn't a waste of time, but I don't see myself doing it again anytime soon.

I'm going to do the Tapout Upper body workout tomorrow, then try another lower body workout in place of Plyo XT on the schedule.

Does anyone else who hates working lower body that's found a workout they can tolerate have any suggestions? Even a lower body workout that's part of a set/series? I have tons of sets, so if there's a hidden gem in one of them, let me know :D

ETA: Lower body goals are primarily building strength. Right now I don't have a lot, which is probably why I hate doing LB workouts.

Another beautiful spring day here! I hope the day goes well for everyone - productive or restful or whatever you need it to be!

Well, my Tapout rotation is already going off track :p because I was even more sore today than yesterday. I ended up doing Combat Kickstart from the Les Mills Combat Beachbody set. That's my #1 go-to workout when I'm not sure if I can handle anything else! It was great :D I think I may end up using this month to explore my collection more. I've been slacking too much and may need to ease into things a little more than I anticipated! So my new goal is going to be just doing something every day this month.

A new week begins!
I've only walked today. The weather here has been amazing lately! Usually my daughters and I would spend these days at the zoo and the lake...it feels weird to be home. Going for short walks helps.
