I sit here this morning trying to decide what to blog about. There are all these things I could say just a little about, however I am not usually good at just saying a little. I said in my last blog I was going to go to kick boxing every morning this week, which I did. I am not doing so great on my evening exercise. I have yet to get in a run. I honestly have been so exhausted this week that I have had to just rest and that itself hasn't been enough. I did go to class on Tuesday night in addition to morning class. I love going to evening class because I feel like I can push WAAAAAY harder...this leads me to my next thought in just a minute. I was supppper sore after going to two classes on Tuesday and then getting back up Wednesday at 4:20am to go again. I received a call at 11:15 that day that my kitchen table we ordered 3 months ago was going to be delivered at 12:30. Well crap, I got nothing done and work and sped off to make it home before the delivery truck arrived. I LOVE MY TABLE!! Anyway, set it up, went and picked up Trenton and I think I napped off and on for close to 3 hours. We went to a birthday party and home by 9:30 but still not to bed before 10:30-11. These late nights are killing me. Went to class Thursday morning and drug myself through it but I wasn't real productive. I was so tired all day Thursday I was nearly falling asleep on my way TO work. I almost had myself talked into going back to class in the evening but when I stood up to get out of the car my calves were hurting so bad, I decided to cook supper and relax. As sleepy as I have been lately and feel like I am dragging myself through the muck, I decided I need a pre workout supplement, to at least make myself feel like I am giving it my all for the hour I am at class, really one of my biggest pet peeves is halfassedness! So I did get some Visalus samples and I am hoping to get to GNC this weekend to get a few other samples to see what I like best for me, I am really nervous about things that could mess with my blood pressure or heart rate since I have a history of high blood pressure. Today I am feeling good! I woke up knowing it was Friday!
I left my computer and am now back with a thought. We all have goals. Everyone's are different. If everyone had the same goals there would be nothing unique about any of us. We each are different in our own ways. So what are your goals???? Really, where is it that your life is taking you and where is it that your going to take ahold of the reins and change directions? You can change directions at any time, remember you have ahold of the reins.
I don't always know exactly what my goals are, but I do know the direction I want to go. This girl above is not my goal. This person is skinny. She is not fit, probably starves, is right for someone but not what I want to be.
This is closer, I want girly curves and definition at the same time. Conceded, maybe, idealistic, maybe, but this is my goal and no one else's. Something I have come to learn and accept is that I or anyone for that matter can loose a large number on the scale week in and week out. Send me out on a bender and give me 3 days and I can drop 5-7 pounds. Healthy...no, sustainable...no. Will it get me or you to goal...NO! Since my goal is not strictly loosing weight I have come to accept that this process takes time. I want to feel good, enjoy life, build myself from the inside out and enjoy the life I have and the one I am making. Healing the heart from the inside and building the body from the inside takes time. I have seen great strides in my muscle tone in the last 6 months, yes 6 months. But does it matter that it took that long for me to get guns? No because I enjoyed the process. A person has to continue pushing through, enjoy what they are doing and NEVER GIVE UP. EVER
Ok there is not much to you with the burpee image but I have to tell you a funny story. I am at class yesterday morning and like I said, utterly exhausted, sore from head to toe and very uncoordinated. We're doing work on the bosu and when you jumped off the bosu you were to do a burpee. I just was not feeling it. I could not make my body do what I wanted it to do. I jumped off the bosu, squatted down, hands on the floor, jump back, and fall down. MY LEGS DID NOT MOVE! Yep I felt a little silly hoping no one from behind me happen to see, since I was in the front row!! I think I literally laughed out loud at myself! But I jumped back up an did it again! When life knocks you down, do a burpee!! And if you fall down during your burpee...DO ANOTHER:)
Happy Friday! Go enjoy your weekend and feed your body the fuel it needs and use it as it was intended to be used! SUNDAY I TURN 30!!!!
