Ok seriously? What is up with the workout we did yesterday? I spent a good portion of the workout trying not to throw up. I know Brian's with me on this one...
Run 400m
50 pull-ups
100 push-ups
150 squats
Run 400m
I partitioned the middle of the workout as if it was 10 rounds of Cindy. By round 6 I was on my knees with Bill cheering at me to keep going. I couldn't speak, so I just made the gesture that says, "I'm about to vomit all over the place". That seemed to keep him off my back for about 20 seconds. There's a little part of me that wonders if he gets excited when people workout till the point of vomiting.
As Tucker would say, I bought a ticket for the puke train, destination grand puke station. Fortunately I got off a stop early in the little town of "highly nauseous"...population: Jennie. (Well, and Brian too) I stopped twice on the last run because I thought the main event was imminent, but alas....I stayed strong. I finished limping and nauseous. I.LOVE.THIS.SHIT.
The ladies class did absolutely amazing, and none of them even felt sick! Leslie has been the most determined that I've ever seen her. I decided some time last week that I needed to start making her use heavier weights, and push her to her limits. I had NO CLUE just how well she would do! Leslie got through all 50 pull-ups on the blue band even though she kept eye-balling the green band...it was just dangling there...mocking her with every pull. Way to stay strong girlfriend!
Did I mention that Clark did 100 double unders in a minute? Yeah, it's Tom Cruise Crazy.

Not puke, stomach acid. I seriously think stomach acid is worse than wanting to puke. At least you can puke and get it over with.
