Did Circuit Training Boot Camp at Gentry Plaza Park In Long Island City







Proof by means of photographs are forthcoming, but for now you will just have to take my word: today's premiere event was one of vigorous physical triumph. Er, well at least physical exertion.

I've been going to a weekly bootcamp for the last month or so run by my girlfriend's brother, Zack. The people who go to the bootcamp with the exception of me and my friend Michael are all employees of the restaurant that Zack manages, Boqueria. They are all in really good shape and it is quite difficult to keep up with them, but I am doing my best.

Today's activity was circuit training. Today's leader Kate, did a great job of setting up some seriously painful shit. There were 8 stations, approximately, including such activities as lunges, jumping rope, ski jumps, crabwalking, abs, step-ups and more! We did each station for a minute - cued by music on an ipod boombox - for 15 minutes straight. Then we did the whole thing 2 more times. We also played some cruel version of tag that involved pushups and other arm torture.

Exhausted does not do this feeling justice.

Goodnight :)

  1. Good for you! I have been doing a fitness boot camp 4 days a week for the past 2 weeks. I wish Zack was my trainer...maybe I will pretend it is him, but I know he is way funnier!

  2. Cari, I really like the idea of you pretending that your trainer is actually Zack.
