I planned to have an easy training day today and so I thought I'd try out the 'Jungle Warrior Camp', which is a collaboration between Third Space Gyms in London and the race sponsor UVU. It was taking place in the pokey dojo and the usual instructor was on holiday and so I was expecting it to be a piece of cake. How wrong I was!!!
Courtesy of our trainer Carl Wilson, I discovered the delights of Tabata interval training. It consists of 20 seconds of ultra-intense exercise, followed by 10 seconds rest, repeated 8 times. After doing this for squats, burpees, push ups, lunges and a bunch of other evil exercises, I was well and truly broken.
It was a completely different type of workout to what I'm used to and it seriously hurt! It's definitely a class I'll go to every week now. It's available to the public too for £10 and so drop me a message if you'd like more details.
Loving the blog mate...apart from it makes me feel truly lazy ha! Will keep reading daily and hopefully pick up a bit of inspiration too :)
