50 reps x 3 sets jump rope
I may have to further shorten the length of the rope
15 reps x 3 sets squats
These were about the equivalent of a warm-up for me
8 reps x 3 sets push ups using dumbbells
As expected these were more difficult
15 reps x 3 sets crunches
Had to go back and do these a second time after accidently shortchanging the reps
I was interrupted by a phone call from a friend I haven't heard from in a year or two, but I'm pretty certain it wouldn't have made a difference either way. I did notice some lower back strain during the crunches (I'm used to doing hanging leg raises, or pendulums, or bent leg crunches with a fitness ball underneath me), but I had also noticed that earlier in the day (had a dream about doing leg presses last night *laughs*).
I thought $20 was a bit expensive for a 'speed rope' from the Nike store, however after checking out comparable products at Sport Check, I'm now satisfied with the purchase. Not sure whether I'll purchase their push-up bar or look for something similar from another company as I would prefer something of metal rather than plastic construction.
I seem to have figured out the camera situation (I'll be using the built-in camera on my Macbook). Time to figure out a silhouette shot and then shower! (looking forward to trying Aveda's hair and body bar).
