Sif_Shepard I love the idea of practising Cyrillic by texting. Must be nice, studying a language together. We had this, too, out of necessity, and it's completely different from doing it my way. Spanish and Russian is a nice combo, both beautiful languages. Add Mandarin Chinese and you're set to talk to the majority of the world

Sooo... with Combat HIIT done, I started thinking on what to do next. I could do some lifting, but wasn't exactly in the mood for that today. But, I was a bit unimpressed with the HIIT part of Combat HIIT. That actually made me wonder... What, if I'd do a combat workout, but very, very slowly? Would that even have an effect? Yes, probably. Would I try it out? Absolutely. That's why today I did:
Slow-mo Fireheart Day 1. I only did Level 1, because doing three sets, back to back without rest, as slow as possible, it took me 33 minutes. I tried to keep my muscles under tension all the time, move as controlled as I could and the same as I'd do if I'd moved at normal speed. Just slower. During set 2, I started sweating. Nearing the end of set 3, I started trembling. This was much harder than I thought. But weirdly fun. I felt my muscles in a whole different way. I'll continue tomorrow, but I don't know if I'll do the whole program.
Good thing: I.. uhm.. bought a used e-drum set for cheap that was in pristine condition. We had to drive an hour to get it, but it was worth it. I guess. Time to learn the drums.
