Maleficent238’s BodyBlog

The fitness coordinator requested that I start studying up on all the classes by taking as many as I possibly can.  So over the next few weeks I’ll be participating in at least one class a day (in addition to my usual workout routine).  I was supposed to do “Turbo Kick” this morning, but the schedule changed and I took “Step Explosion” instead. It was more intense than I expected and actually quite fun.  And after having to stare at myself under bright fluorescent lights for an hour, I’ve decided that I need to get my ass to a tanning bed ASAP!  Seriously, dude.  It’s bad.  Anyway, tomorrow is either “Turbo Kick” or “Body Blast.” 

Oh, I’m meeting with the program coordinator this week to discuss nutrition programs.  I can’t wait to start doing consultations.

I’ve been working on my certification materials since I woke up.  I suspect I’ll be doing this until I go to bed. It’s not that the material is difficult, it just takes time.  I’ve put this off for far too long.  The group fitness coordinator at work wants to put me on the schedule as soon as possible, so I have to get this stuff done.  I hope to get everything mailed in by Thursday.

I’d rather be doing other things.  Bleh.

I started my new job at Louisiana Athletic Club (LAC) today. It went very well. Tomorrow I’m going to learn how they do body assessments by having my own assessment done. I’m curious to see what the result will be. I don’t feel as lean as I was a few months ago, but I’m definitely more muscular. So I’m not sure what my body fat percentage is. I guess we’ll find out tomorrow.

After my shift I had retardedly intense leg workout. I skipped leg day last week, so I wanted to make up for it today. I expect to be crazy sore tomorrow. And that’s a good thing.

I have about a week and a half left at Premier Athletic. The one thing I’m going to miss about that place is the stepmill. LAC does not have one of those blessed machines. My boss said that he was considering ordering one. I’m going to make it my personal mission to that that happens. I heart the stepmill.

Yesterday was a little tough for me.  I was ultra-sensitive for some reason and kept getting triggered by the most random things.  I cracked a little, but I’m feeling better today.

Pushing forward.

That’s what my friend told me this weekend when I wouldn’t eat with her at a wedding shower.  Fried chicken, chocolate-covered marshmallows, and pastries.  I didn’t want to make her feel bad, but I just couldn’t bring myself to eat that garbage.

I kicked off a cut diet this week.

I start my new job tomorrow.

Things are things.

Last week I started working out at Premier (where I’m currently employed).  The equipment is just so much nicer than at LC (my other gym that I’ll start working at in a couple of weeks).  The problem is, it’s not as conveniently located as LC.  So on days when I have the time, I make the trek over to Premier.  On days when I don’t, I stick to LC.  Anyway, I worked back and abs at Premier yesterday.  It was a pretty good workout and I’m quite sore today.  Yay.   

There’s more to report, but I’m not really in the blogging mood.  I just wanted to write something since it’s been a while.  I’ll give a more detailed update later in the week.

Everything is as it should be.
