Workouts, but not with ChaLean Extreme

elsinore

So I did workouts over the weekend and on Monday but none of them were with Chalean Extreme.  I am STILL waiting for my television to be fixed, but it is all good.  I had Softball practice on Saturday and Sunday, but since I usually do not get a good workout at practice, I decided to go early and workout.  On Saturday I did something that I have not done since I played football…I ran lines.  For people who do not know what that is, it is when you start from one endzone and run to the 20 yard line and run back and then to the 40 yard line and run back and so on until you do the full 100 yard dash.  It gets super tiring, because you are sprinting the whole time.  I also ran a couple laps around the track before that to get warmed up.  After running lines, I rested for a little bit, and then ran the hundred yard dash as fast as I could twice.  It really was a great workout, all together it was only about 20 minutes, but it was nice to get back outside and do some sprinting.  

I also worked out on Monday with Jeff, and we did another upper body workout focusing on the chest and triceps.  I had to make sure that I was careful that I did not hurt my arm worse, so I took it pretty easy.  For the chest we did Dumbbell presses, a upper body press, and a cable press.  For the triceps, we did triceps extensions on the cables, s dips, and something else…I can’t remember what it’s called.  After that we then focused on are stomachs and then did some push ups on a stability ball.  I even ran for about a mile before Jeff got there, so overall it was a great workout.

Now I will explain the picture,  Sunday I rode a motorbike for the first time, it was called a pit bike.  The experience was fun, although I let the clutch out to fast the first time I tried and almost dragged my face across the earth.  Tuesday, was my second time ever riding a pit bike, and my friends spent all day build a jump that they were going off on.  When I got there they asked me if I wanted to try the jump, and I was like YEAH sounds like fun.  Well, I got on the bike and let out the clutch, so far everything was smooth.  I was riding around getting used to the feel, I lined up to the jump and was going to just take a test run to get the feel of it.  But half way I just decided to go for it.  No one ever told me that you have to stand up a little bit when you go off the jump.  So when I went off the jump I was sitting down, which caused my front tire to head downwards straight into the ground, I hit the very top of my front tire and almost completely flipped over the handlebars, but I pulled it off.  I was about as close as you can get to flipping without flipping.  It was exciting, and they got it on video.  It is pretty hilarious.
