83,7 - Les Mills and gym

My sweaty February project is going well. I did a very good HIIT crosscountry skiing workout yesterday morning. I did intervals 1 minute 90% of max and 2 minutes rest periods 10 rounds ( or 12), but Suunto heart rate monitor ranked my workout as being perfect:-) Total workout was 45 minutes with average heart rate 143, but over 10 minutes was more that 150. 150 is high, because my max is 168. In the evening I did a Aikido class which is more like recovery workout.

Today I'll start with Les Mills 45 minute workout and in the evening I have my gym routine. For squats I'm doing 4x4 ( 67,5kg), 1x3 (70kg), 1x8(67,5kg). But I'll start with 3 rounds of 4 minute functional core moves. Previously I think I hit max heart rate ( or almost:-). I also have a two monster sets: chin ups - dips ( 25) and bench press - bend over row  2 x 8 (65 kg) and one more circuit: turkish get up 5 + 5, step ups and dead lift with dumbbells ( 3 rounds). I like this workout. I get two kinds of fatigue: two times cardio workout (total about 25 min) and two times  major muscle stress.
