Today I did a full-body circuit followed up by a 45 minute walk on a 10-15 percent incline on the treadmill. My abs are aching as are my glutes. Those are my current areas of workout obsession. Nonetheless, it felt good switching up my routine. If I’m not sore, I don’t quite feel as if I achieved anything. I’m trying to slink into a teeny dress for the holidays. So the gym has to be a regular thing despite the hectic holiday schedule.  Let’s see just how committed I can be.

I’m teaching full-time six days a week, coaching basketball three times a week for two hours each session, plus taking two and a half graduate courses this fall. When’s a girl to go to the gym? They say good things come in small packages. My mom sent me Winsor Pilates with the Pilates ring. I almost laughed because I’m not one for fads except for when it comes to Core Secrets. I’ve been working out in the comfort of my home with resistance bands, eight-ten pound dumbbells, and my stability ball and running in Central Park. But the pilates program has been very helpful especially in the abdominal area. Even though we are approaching December, I still want to maintain a pretty solid workout program so that when January hits, I won’t be huffing and puffing on the treadmill with tons of bodyfat to shed. Anyhow, today was a short day at work for me, so I’m headed to the gym to get in an hour and a half of workout time. Besos.
