Today was my second time using Beachbody’s new E&E pre-workout drink. I think that stands for Energy & Endurance. Did it give me either? I think so. I certainly pushed myself harder than I have in the past, but this did lead to me stopping to catch my breath more. Certainly got the heart rate up today! I like that the drink is primarily a ton of various B vitamins. Beachbody has some great supplements and the nutritionists who develop them seem to know what they’re doing. Side note: I’m so glad we have Shakeology again. I can’t speak highly enough of that drink!
This is the first time I’ve had the 4lb medicine ball for Plyocide. It was really nice to use for the weighted Mary Katherine Lunges; and I noticed that Tony is the only person on the DVD using the 8lb version. I felt that with the 4lb ball I could have better form. The other time I used the 4lb was for the squat jump move and it allowed me to go faster; unsure if I prefer faster with less weight or slower with more weight. With the squat jump move I again noticed that only Tony uses 8lbs and everyone’s going fast; so I guess that answers my question.
Sadly last night I failed at doing Ab Ripper. Never had a kid-free moment. Some nights are like that. Though I did get to take the kiddos in the double stroller for a 1.5 mile walk; that was lovely. I’ll shoot for Ab Ripper tonight. I may just have to do that on the nights I can, regardless of if it lines up with the nights I’m supposed to. I’ll plan on doing it at least 3 times per week and let life determine which days.
