Week 11: Jillian Michaels Body Revolution
/This week marks the beginning of the end for me and this round of Body Revolution! Here's the schedule:
I honestly don't have too much to say about these workouts other than that they are really hard. Luckily, Jillian gives lots of modification options if you need to take it down a little or even amp it up. That's one thing that I think makes this set so valuable, is that you could do it several times through and still benefit because you can always make things more difficult by adding extra resistance or upping the tempo.
As far are the exercises this week, two of the most difficult for me involve upper body strength (not my best area). The first is a scorpion push-up. You start in a regular push-up position, but, as you lower your body, you lift one leg, bend it up, and reach your heel across your back towards the opposite elbow. In the other, you get into a bridge/wheel position and then do a push-up from there, lowering your head the ground. Tough, but once you can do them it makes you feel super legit.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm glad that I only have one more of these posts because I don't always have that much to tell you guys anymore! Make sure to check back next week for my final post and complete review!
