Yes all, 1 mile above the sea and looking out at a "14er" Longs peak.  Once again I hit my FAVORITE gym 20,000sq ft but had to share with 10 people.  Beautiful colorado day blue sky, 58degrees and not a cloud in the sky.  Pumping iron, Jammin Metal, it just doesn’t get any better than this!!!  

 ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have heard and seen soooooo many people being pumped up at the start of this year it is exhilarating!  I am just as caught up in it, Great support, new routine, new energy, same goal and I’m ready to give it all I’ve got!!!  BRING IT ON!

Okay, so I didn’t actually puke…but, I was frustrated, I was ready to quit, then I went to my 20,000sq ft gym (which I had to share today) and beat the living sh*$ out of my legs.

Nothing is more powerful or rewarding as puting on 45s after 45s and banging out the reps!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I won’t be able to walk tomorrow, but I haven’t givin up my goal!

How would you like to workout at a 20,000 sq ft gym and have it all to yourself?  Thats what i did yesterday!!!  I did cardio with a floor to ceiling view of the 14er mountain Longs peak.  If that isn’t enough inspiration….. I have any and every machine free weight to myself.  Talk about a kid in a candy store!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lucky me!

Ok, I plan on taking a few days 5-7 off.  I have worked out continually for 8 weeks straight and know that muscles need rest to grow. So, what better time than xmas.  Not too close to competition and not too far out either.

However, I don’t want to do nothing and I am not sure what kind of diet to follow.  I am thinking of not counting calories and writing down EVERYTHING that does tend to get tedious.  But I don’t want to go on a food beinge either.

I can’t just sit and do nothing so i am planning on working on my routine for fitness part. I think a little less brain work and focus and a LOT more playing and concentrating on the kids and family would be good for now.  Because, I KNOW as time gets closer, I will be completely strict on myself.

I have a journal posted in the over 35, female bodybuilding journals.

It is exciting to see my body transform.  If i stay away from the hype and focus on my own training I know I will stay on track and succeed!  I am working on pics.  I need to find someone to take them for me, I have had to do yoga to do it myself. LOL
