Day Four

This is our schedule for today's workout.  Our cardio circuit was one on the treadmill in an interval training style with high level exertion and recovery.  I did a mixture of hill incline and jogging for my high level.  I'm not much of a runner so I only jogged on the one minute intervals and climbed very steep hills on the three minute intervals.


After the cardio circuit we had a lovely Mexican style breakfast.  It was like a breakfast burrito without the bread.  It was delicious and filling.  The cheese covered item was beans.  And the item on the right of the tomatoes was a picante freshly made salsa.  All things are cooked with herbs and vegetables grown at the resort.                                                                 

The workout after breakfast was another hike, but this time it was on the beach.  Terry Pines to be exact.






It was gorgeous!  The ocean was full of life, the view was lovely.









Then we arrived at a sort of mini mountain that you could climb up from the beach.
From this climb you could get an even better view of the ocean.




This is my new friend Lindsay and I.  She is my roommate at the resort. 

After the climb we came back for a time management session, on how to fit workouts and food preparation into your day.

Then finally the last two sessions.  Muscle strengthening with a lower body and core focus.  10 round boxing (60 mins) with boxing and core cardio stations.  Then a yoga session to wind down for the day.

Today was challenging, but much more manageable than yesterday.  I'm sore but not as exhausted.  One and a half more days before rest!
