Today was day #2 of my second session of Bootcamp. Our workout today consisted of chest/back exercises and running. For the entirety of the previous 4-week session I used 5lb weights for our strength exercises. After today's workout I've decided to move up to 8lbs.
During the last camp session I struggled with reps using the 5lb weights. Today I struggled with one move (the standing chest flies) but the others (rows and dead lifts) I could have easily upped the weight I was using. That is progress!
In between each rep of the weight exercises, we had to run a short distance. I despise running but today it didn't seem so bad. I can tell that my fitness is improving by my speed, endurance, and the rate at which I recover. It feels good to know that I can see the progress I want on the scale and in my fitness. It makes me eager to continue and eager to push myself to see how far I can go.
