Fight Camp Week 4 - Done!

This week was a short one for me. I missed Monday and Tuesday's sessions because I was away for a long weekend, so only got to Thursday and Friday's sessions. Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to do exercise when I was away, the weather was a bit nuts so I was restricted to indoors and the hotel rooms were too small or the floors way to creaky for me to do any jumping around. Instead, we walked miles and miles and miles. My calves were killing me by the time we got back and are still feeling a bit tight. My ' official photographer '/motivational coach/trainer/friend, Sheena, was back on top form today, and assisted me in getting the photographs for me to put together my little montage! However, what was meant to be me standing posing to get a few pics done turned into Mistress Walker cracking the whip and had me doing a mini workout, I had only finished this mornings session a few minutes prior. God forbid she ever g...

Fight Camp is Done :-( ..... the results are in :-)

So I had my final Fight Camp session yesterday morning.... boooo :( 6 weeks of early 5am rises, 24 hours worth of crazy training sessions, 10 million buckets of sweat, 20 bags of spinach, i've lost count of the amount of chickens, and a vat of protein shakes later and I feel fit and fabulous! Every session was relentless and the setup continually evolved. Even in the last session, the trainers were chucking new combinations and exercises at us (which included some jump kicks and jump knees which were much fun), continually pushing us until the very end. The finisher was an absolute killer which involved a pack of cards (a very dodgy pack of cards which seemed to have way too many 10s in it) and a torturous amount of burpees, squat jumps and ab exercises. My ab's are flinching just thinking about it! I've got mixed feelings with regard to the end of the camp. I'm sad it is over. As much as I was starting to struggle with the ea...

Fight Camp, Week 1 - Done!

Week one of Fight Camp is done and I actually survived! Yee-Haa! This is me yesterday after the workout session... a big sweaty mess, but on an absolute high. I don't think I look too bad given that I had been up since 5am and just done a monster session. The first thing that went through my head after the session, well second, first being 'I need a shower, I'm stinkin', was that I can't wait until next week! I can't believe the difference exercising first thing in the morning has made to my appetite. It's like my metabolism has gone into overdrive. I've been following the nutritional info the trainers have provided as part of doing Fight Camp, which centres around ensuring your body has everything it needs in order to cope with the exercise programme they are putting us through. Lots of meat and veg mainly. I'm eating more now than I was before I started Fight Camp, with me eating around 5-6 meals throughout the day. Y esterday was the first...
