Spartacus

My extemely fit cousin convinced me to try out a workout she's been doing called "The Spartacus." I was able to find it online here at Men's Health Magazine so I don't have to video tape myself doing the moves. Thank goodness, because without an iphone, I'll never get around to that (I am talking to you Mr. Hilarious).

I consider myself in great shape, and wasn't sure if this 45 minute workout was as tough as my cousin bragged. I really like to mix-up my non-run workouts because if I do the same thing week after week, I don't feel it anymore. I'm the type that likes to feel a little sore after strength training so I know I actually worked something.

I did all of the exercises with 8 pound weights and was pouring sweat by the end. It seemed to go quickly either because you are moving to a new move every 60 seconds or I had great company.

After my post-workout shower, my legs felt a little jello-ish and now, my butt is sore even though I am just sitting here. I will definately do this routine again, although I hope I don't end up looking like this guy:
