Yes, I have been somewhat MIA from bodyspace for the past month or so but its not to say I haven’t been training and eating a squeaky clean diet (well, with the exception of my 1 cheat meal a week..typically in the form of rich chocolate haha)..
I am 4 weeks out from my 27th birthday, which a little background.. where most people use the marker of Jan 1 to begin or reach new goals, I use my birthdays. Every year since I began training I have set goals for myself to be better than the year before.. sometimes setting weight goals, or size goals, sometimes bodyfat percentage.. well, this year it really was to build up my endurance and to try new things in fitness and really diversify myself… as well as of course looking amazing (what woman doesn’t want that?!?)…
The past month I have spent dragging my hiney through 2+ mile runs (doesn’t seem like a lot but when you aren’t a runner its hell), amusing myself via people watching from the upstairs cardio machines, and then breaking into new stuff..
So.. I revisited my path to hot yoga.. picked that back up.. remembered I loved it and wondered why I ever stopped (thats right bc I moved to colorado..hmmm), I put on boxing gloves for the first time and literally felt absolutly powerful one minute and out of breath, panting thinking I could just die right then and there about 45 min later, I have been circuit training, doing push-ups and pull-ups, walking up sets of 400 stairs and back down and back up.. let me tell you the whole new things is not comfortable and deff not for the weak hearted or less than strong willed!
Well.. I am getting there and I think so long as I can just keep pushing myself for the next month I may just meet the standards I set out for.. keep on cheering.. lord knows I will need it!
