I was seriously contemplating on not going to the gym tonight. But, warm weather, spring races, summer parties, and *drumroll please* the beach beckons! So… what other motivation apart from those do I need to endure another night at the gym (and keep me away from shopping hehe)?
Monday
45 minutes Body Attack – I was a bit careful with my ankle, as it would’ve only been a week since the injury, but I found that there weren’t any problems with doing the high impacts.
Tuesday
1 hour Body Pump – yep, back to Pump. It’s been 3 weeks since my last Pump class, and boy did I have a hard workout or what?!?! The usual culprits were the worst: squats, clean and press, biceps, and shoulder tracks. But I felt that I was obligated to go back to doing Pump, as I didn’t want to neglect the weights aspect of my training.
Wednesday
45 minutes Body Attack – sore, but undefeated from the previous day’s Pump class, I eagerly went to my usual Wednesday Attack class. The instructor was going for a month’s holiday too, so I felt that out of courtesy, I should go to her last class before she leaves hehe!
Thursday
1 hour Body Attack – I was surprised to still be feeling sore – in fact, more sore than Wednesday. I really, really wanted to go home early after work, or do a bit of window shopping, but I urged my feet to go to the opposite direction from the train station and towards the direction of the gym. I crawled my way to the studio, because my feet, legs, and thighs were massively hurting from Tuesday’s Pump. But, pain has its place, and it’s not in Attack class.
I managed through the class, and I really enjoyed it because the instructor picked most of my favourite songs from various releases. Yeah!!! From what I can remember, I think this was the tracklist:
Body Attack tracks for 55 minute work out (the songs here are very good too so I recommend these songs when exercising!)
- Warm up -Truly Madly Deeply by Cascada
- Mixed track -Superfreak by Southern Light
- Aerobics – Spiderman by Toast & Jam feat Ant P
- First Power Peak – Apache Rocks the Bottom by Hard Out Crew
- Upper Body (push ups) – Walk this Way by Sugarbabes vs Girls Aloud
- Running – Heat of the Moment by Zakke Snor
- Agility – Chelsea Dagger by Double A
- Interval -When I Close My Eyes by Pistolet
- Second Power Peak – Nowhere Fast by Southern Light
- Lunges/Squats – Grace Kelly by Mika
- Abs – Take Control by Amerie
- Cool down/Stretch – Believe Again by Delta Goodrem
So there you go! One of 2 of my favourite mixed tracks from Body Attack. I’ll publish the second one when I have the time… took me bloody long to find the individual tracks for this one already!!
My favourite track at the moment is the 2nd power peak track, Nowhere Fast. Ahhhh gotta love the eighties!
Actually, here’s the original version, by Fire Inc. When I hear it I just want to start doing the Attack moves again hahaha. Ok I’m an Attack junkie hehe… (don’t worry about the Japanese subtitles)
I JUST LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!
I was just about to ask for a song list for my ipod!!
Hahaha seph gave you new tracks, so , you’ve got to share some pumpin tunes!
