So I finally discovered the sorce of my low back always going out… my mattress!  After sleeping in a different mattress for a week and a half after visiting the chiropractor once a day for three weeks, I slept in the old mattress and guess what, my back went out in my sleep, probably due to the hole my hips seem to fall into…  bummer.  so I am stiff and uncomfortable today and now need to think about finding a new mattress so I am not sleeping in the guest room for the rest of my life.  LOL

…for this week.  I am going to up my intensity level and give it all I have in the gym this week!  Things are starting to rock and roll and I wanna take it to the next level!

practice today!  I love it!  What a challenge it is.  Don’t forget to check out August’s Oxygen Magazine!  I am in the "Future of Fitness" column!

I threw out my back a month ago, and because of that I was not able to compete in the Colorado State Championships on the 18th.  I have been going to the chiropractor 2-3x’s a week and had to stop training all together… but today I was able to go to the gym and start again.  The leg press felt great, so I went deeper into the exersize… and that worked, so I went a little deeper… and well, now I am hurting and need to go see the chiro tomorrow.  Darn it!!!

Whoops!  I woke up 2 hours late…  I need to re-arrange my workouts and meals now.  I guess my body needed the extra sleep!
