Quarterly 01, 2008

Quarterly time again!
BP 65, BA 60, BB 40, BC 35!
No real surprises for me this time, as I was in NZ in November, but still awesome releases and a great generic workshop: "Team teaching with music".
This time I went to Zwolle, man, that's too far. I remember saying last year, I'm not going there again, but this time I did not really have choice as I won't be able to do all my Master classes in Nieuwegein, and I'm doing assessment in Roosendaal. Well anyway, at 6.45 I was on my way to Zwolle, to be in time for BP. Of course I got lost in the City, but I managed to be there on time to do assessment for the first BP master class. Man, It was F*ing freezing cold. Outside it was -8 Celsius, but I think inside it was about the same. 2 long sleeve shirts weren't enough. I could see people wear all sweats etc during the class; I don't think anyone really got as warm as they usually do. My own master classes started at 12.00. BB at first. NOT funny, the place got a bit warmer, but still too cold to do a comfortable BB master class. Usually I start to sweat during the strength track, but now I was just about to feel my toes again. After BB I had to do BA. I was looking forward to it (Hopping to get warm). Well I got warmer, but during track 3 I still wasn't warm enough and I hurt my calf. NOT funny. I love this celebration release and I wanted to give all I had. I did anyways, but I think I would have been better when I hadn't done that, as Monday when I woke up it was completely stiff and it was painful to walk.
Well let's get back to the quarterly; of course I did BC and BP also. BC 35 is a great training work out, simple moves, lots of repetitions: Awesome!
BP is great to! Powerful uplifting music to help you through the workout. I already knew the release, because I have been assisting a BP module training last weekend with Renate. Release yourself and BP is just a way of life to warm you up. Heavy beats bring you back to squat paradise and make you want to lift more, so you will burn more. Chest makes me want to sing along, I'm so sorry for the members in my class :-). No breaks, just keep going. I love the back track, with lots of triple rows for the upper back. Great music, familiar for my BA fans in class.
Groovy song for triceps, with a new three point transition. Great move, too bad it's only used as a transition. Biceps: totally not my kind music, and since a definitely do not like to do biceps either, you probably think by now that I hate this track. WRONG! I love it, it is totally biceps!!! I think it's a bit easier than the previous release. Lunge: back to work. Man, it's a tough one. Could feel butt the day after! Chest: This is definitely one to turn up the music!!!! Hard work! I'm glad push ups are back. Mac raise is back in town as well. In addition to all of this we have good abdominal track. It's not an easy one, but I like it as it's very different again. To finish the workout, the cool down song, personally caught me the first time I heard it. Don't know why, but I love it and it really calms me down after this great workout.
