I had a softball game so I decided that the game was going to be my workout. The game was an hour long and I play in left center. I got to bat 4 times and was 2/4 (that darn outfielder was right where I hit the ball!) so I had a 500 for the night. I also go a great catch in the outfield! I know that sometimes we take for granted that team sports are not much of a workout. I will say this, I have been missing something in my routines...something that has been lacking in my ab workouts. This was it! For the first time in quite some time I am actually sore in my obliques and lower abs. Now, do I have to play softball to get this kind of workout...NO! But I realize that I took for granted other items I have at home to workout with. Swinging a bat is a great ab workout. I think I am going to incorporate some swings into my ab routine. One of the best swing exercises to do is hit a tire. I might just get an old tire, attach it to a post and stick that thing in the ground. The resistance of the tire helps with the speed of your swing and helps with giving you a great workout! Oh by the way, we won!!
I hope that you had a great workout yesterday! Here's to the next workout! Until then...
April :)
