Outdoor Cardio Bootcamp



Outdoors again today, but a milestone...last day of 30 seconds work 30 seconds rest!

It's all gonna change next week:)

Three MOOsers had measurements today, and while I can't remember the total inches and body fat down, here are a couple of the highlights:

Lisa has lost 48 pounds in 12 weeks
Christine is down 38 pounds (I think), and several inches off her waist
Missy finally broke through and dropped on the scale AND finally got the right mindset about that wonderful scale.

More tomorrow as Erica and Tonia get their results.

PHA and a Little Fun















































MOOsers had a little fun this morning, as it was train the trainer day. Hope to get the video footage from Christine very soon, quite a site for sure:)

As for their workout:

PHA

Jumping Pull ups
Kettlebell High Pull
Push ups
Flutter Kicks

30 seconds per movement no rest in between. Four exercises consist of one round. Complete 8 straight rounds without rest.

Then we did partner sprint and plank- one person sprints while the other planks. We did this for 7 minutes.

Here's todays video:




We have measurements tomorrow and Saturday, hope to update as they come in. Very excited to see the results.

Lets try some new cardio

Well not really.

It was suggested we go outside on this beautiful day by one of the moosers (whose name will remain anonymous) and do some sprints. Well we did some sprints all right:

30 rounds 30 seconds sprint, 30 seconds rest.

It's amazing how these five have grown in 12 weeks. They have changed their lives in so many ways. Their attitude, personality, and of course bodies have changed so much, but there is one thing that has remained the same the whole time: their tenacity and drive to never give up.

They are doing workouts now that your typical 'gym goer' wouldn't have a chance surviving. To say they are fit is an understatement. I don't give a rats ass about the weight, that will come. I'm talking about being fit and healthy. They have lifted themselves from the ashes of former selves but kept all of the parts that made them unique and have shed the parts they didn't like about themselves.

We've got 4 weeks left, but if it ended today, each and every one of them have succeeded way beyond expectations.

I hope those of you following along are inspired because I sure as hell am.
