This Week’s Rotation=Heavy on the Amy Bento

Last week I only really ended up working 3 days of the week. That’s how miserable I felt all week. I hope to accomplish more this week. I am still not completely healthy (nasty lingering cold) but I think I have a little more energy. I don’t have my first physical therapy session until next week, so I’m still being careful with my sprained ankle. Oh, who am I kidding? I’m not being that careful considering I did Amy Bento’s new step workout today with few modifications. Of course, my ankle is a little sore tonight so I don’t know how smart that was. This week I’ll be alternating cardio with weight work so that I can give that ankle a little rest from the leaping about.

This week will be taken from the second week of my elegantly named “Using all my new Workouts Rotation” which is listed on my Rotation Ideas document (which you can download here). I think some of my rotations might be helpful for others but some are very personalized, like this one or like a couple I made for all upper body ankle recovery weeks.

OK, here’s this week’s plan:

• Monday: Step Aerobics (Amy Bento’s Advanced Step Challenge 2)
• Tuesday: Chest, Biceps, Triceps, Core (Amy Bento’s Slo-Mo Strength Challenge premix)
• Wednesday: Step/Kickboxing (Kelly Coffey-Meyer’s Cardio Kick Step-Boxing)
• Thursday: Step, Legs, Core (Cardio only of Cathe's Lower Intensity Step, Lower body of Tracy Effinger’s Squeeze, core work from Amy's All Pump)
• Friday: Step Aerobics (Tracey Staehle’s High Intensity Step Mix)
• Saturday: Shoulders, Back, Core (Amy Bento’s Slo-Mo Strength Challenge premix)
• Sunday: Rest
