Monday - February 28 - Day 56

First, let me say that I ended up telling my trainer that the workout he gave me today also gave me a cramp in my ass cheek.  Awesomeness right there, people...

20 db thrusters
20 sdhp (Sudo Deadlift High Pull or something like that)
20 jumping squats
20 lunges
20 burpees
4 rounds

When we got this, I freaked out.  What the hell is "sdhp"?  Of course, it was a P1 day, so the trainer told me to check with those guys.  Which, I did.  It wasn't as hard as it looked in the few pictures I found on the web.

With the SDHP, you start like a deadlift and as you come up, you pull the bar up to your chin.  I'm sure I'm not describing it well enough to do it justice, but it really wasn't as hard as it sounds.

I finished three rounds.  I started the 4th and finished the thrusters and did about 5 of the sdhp for that round.  However, I ended up getting the shakes and thought I was going to throw up on one of the P1 guys, so I stopped.  

My workout partner let the two guys guilt her into a 4th round and she completed it.  She told me after that she just gets tired of listening to them and so she didn't want to deal with them bitching.  Me?  I don't care so much.  If I get to a point where I'm feeling like puking?  I can guarantee you that I will stop.

One of the guys apologized to me for pushing me, while knowing I didn't feel I could do it.  I told him not to ever apologize for pushing me to my limits with these workouts.  He's one of three people allowed to do that.  He said he just didn't want me to think he was being an asshole.  Awwww that was sweet.  I told him I may fuss back at him, but I do listen to him and I take what he says to heart and I value his opinion when it comes to these workouts.

Anyone above and beyond the two P1 guys and my trainer will be ignored from this day forward.  I let them get to me last week and I won't do that again.  Fuck that.

So yeah, besides sitting on an ice pack right now, I'm feeling halfway decent about my attempt at the workout today. 

It's also official, I have started wearing size 10.  I was a size 14 in July when I started walking.  I've been wearing baggy, too big for me size 12s for the last several weeks cause some days they felt tight.  I squee'd and then I did a little happy "jig" in the fitting room yesterday. 

Feeling good about my journey....
