Ok. So… after posting yesterday’s pic updates on Facebook, I decided to get a bit more serious with my conditioning.

May 31st 2013 ~ Decently Lean
“June 1st”, I thought, “what better time to start my disgusting routine?” My birthday is in September, and I plan on being in the best possible shape for my 31st birthday.
Sometimes… I am unnecessarily cruel to myself.
Anyway… Here’s how it went:
‘Warm-up’: Rowing Machine: 15 minutes
I honestly don’t know why I would have considered this warm-up. The rowing machine is a BEAST of a machine. Right now, I’m shaking inside remembering how it abused my body earlier today.
*Shivers*
11 minutes in to my ‘warm-up’, my toes started to get numb. I’m guessing the pressure on my glutes caused some nerve compression, so I decided to get out of the seated vein, and on to my conditioning circuit.
Circuit:
Skipping: 100 reps
Hanging Straight-leg lift: 10 reps

Try this. You’ll never look at conditioning the same.
