Rushfit Week 1: Fattie does a Kimura

So how does it feel to get back into training again? On day 1 of Rushfit, I felt dizzy, nauseous and exhausted. Good times!

However, Rushfit is day-on-day-off so the next day I did some cardio (fattie Pilates if you must know). This gave me some much needed stretching and relief from the previous day. Back into the program and things went much better, no dizziness just lots of sweat.

So far there has been 3 rushfit work outs and 3 self assigned cardio sessions.Already I can feel the benefits; with increased around strength and recovery time.I like learning MMA moves which I have not done before, the Kimura really works the abs. That being said when asked to perform a full bridge being held up with my hands I felt that the workout was asking a bit much.

So with week one complete I have a few observations:

Pros:

• The 10 min warm up is excellent and properly prepares you for the main work out. Some other fitness programs skip this or don't spend enough time on it and this has caused injury in the past.
• The round system, 5 mins off, 1 min off x 5, is excellent and creates enough variety to prevent boredom

Cons:

• Some of the moves in the workout are hard to do and some of Ab work out moves are just plain dangerous
• Its the same warm up and cool down for every session and It's already getting annoying. 

3 pounds lost so far, hopefully week 2 will be just as productive

Next week I'll being including my eating schedule for your critique.
