Gargle Your Heart - JM workout

[Texaco Shirley]

Are you starting Monday? If we haven’t heard by what? 6pm? we’ll send an ambulance.

[lazzbo]

Much appreciated, ta.

Well done Nine. How are you finding it?

I'm not sure whether I love it or hate it. I always feel amazing afterwards though. The first proper set of cardio (star jumps and jump rope) is still awful.

[Texaco Shirley]

It does get better. Eventually The last cardio always feels good I find. I think it’s because it’s 4 different moves.

Yes! I don’t mind that one.

[Disco]

Good work from everyone!

D4 strength done. I wasn't in machine mode today and decided I was talking nonsense yesterday when I said I liked that last circuit. Anyway, not a great burn today 225 but it's out of the way. I did use heavy weights a lot and my balance was good. I hate the swimming thing, my body doesn't bend backwards. It hardly bends forward as it is.

[Texaco Shirley]

Well done. The swimming thing is really awkward and makes me feel silly.

D4 cardio done. My bear kicks were cub kicks and I only did about half the burpees but otherwise all done.

Total calories 301.

[Disco]

Good work! Also D4 cardio done; 276. I felt quite powerful. In parts. I do hate those bear kicks. They're so, so knackering. I always pretend I'm being videoed and beamed out to local television so I suck my stomach in and power through.

[Texaco Shirley]

Well done, I am loving the idea of your efforts being broadcast

My shoulder is not happy. It’s low level aching and crunched in the car just now as I changed into 3rd. I might need overnight ibuprofen.

[Disco]

It really does focus the mind!

Over night ibuprofen sounds worthwhile. Have you got any volterol gel to apply directly?

[Texaco Shirley]

I think I have actually, It's just difficult to pinpoint exactly where it hurts.

[lazzbo]

I love the additional pressure you put on yourself, Dix. Crunchy shoulder sounds horrid, Tex. Tiger balm?

I've done my cardio. There's one exercise called "kick outs" where you hop about and spin your arms in small circles, it's the worst thing in the world EVER and my arms are falling out of their sockets now, I swear.

[Disco]

I cannot imagine those kick outs but I trust you when you say it's horrible.

Is yours supposed to be daily for three months?!

[Texaco Shirley]

I’ve gone with ibuprofen

That does sound horrible, like the tweety birds but worse.

[lazzbo]

I cannot imagine those kick outs but I trust you when you say it's horrible.

Is yours supposed to be daily for three months?!

Yes, my description is piss poor. It's six days on, one day off, but only between 25 and 35 minutes.

[Disco]

I'm going to read lots of reviews. Which day are you levelling up?

[lazzbo]

It should be next Tuesday, I think, I'm going to have to miss a day because of various Zoom commitments.

Hope the meds and a good night's sleep helps, Tex.

[Texaco Shirley]

Thank you.

[nineseven]

I just looked up Jillian’s bear kicks

[Disco]

They are quite brutal!
