BC2 Journal entry 7 for week 2

Friday May 20, 10pm

So I mentioned on Wednesday that I had accidentally sprained my ankle. Well Thursday I did not go to boot camp because I was in a lot of pain and today I did not go. I was so mad at myself that I made one little mistake (accident) and put me in a lot of pain. I also am mad because I m unable to go to boot camp. My plan is too continue to ice, heat, stretch and take pain medication to ensure that my ankle gets better by Monday's boot camp.
I did not mention that I learned a new exercise on Wednesday that I loved. Its called Box Jumps
 

This picture shows a more advanced box jump than what I did in boot camp on Wednesday. this picture at least gives an idea as to what the exercise looks like. There is actually a square about the picture size, marked by tape and four smaller boxes inside marked by tape. You have to face one direction and jump to the squares to your left in a circle, still facing one direction. Box Jumps really works your gluts, thighs, quads and even abdomen. It can be difficult to do toward the end of the class but it takes a lot of effort to accomplish this exercise in the time frame.
