I am on a journey..
I am challenging myself everyday, to be a better person, to be a better ME, to live a better life and to be healthier. I want what every one wants, whether they admit it or not. I make mistakes, I have regrets...but I do NOT let them get in the way or progress. I am not perfect, I never will be, but I can BE better, I can DO better, I can LIVE better!
This morning I have decided that I am not done with my fitness challenge. I have more work to do, and probably always will. I bore easily, so I have decided that instead of putting ALL my energy into 1 DVD program, I am going to expand my horizons and try to switch up my workout to keep myself engaged in my goals.
Today I am doing a workout by choice, already cranked out 1 set this morning and will crank out another set late tonight. This IS important to ME. I want to do this for myself.
My Workout Challenge for TODAY:
50 Jumping Jacks
40 Crunches
40 Squats
40 Leg Lifts
30 Jumping Jacks
20 Bicycle Crunches
20 Squats
30 Leg Lifts
Run 10 Minutes
(and yes, I ran in place and my kids joined me!)
It feels great to have pain, to feel the burn and to know that I am making this happen for my body. Do I need to lose weight, no. Do I want to look better in my clothes? YES! I want to have a toned tummy, I want to have defined leg muscles and feel GOOD about my body. This is me, raw. I want to feel great in my own skin and not feel self conscious, or worry that my shirt is too tight and someone can see the roll in my belly. I just want to feel good.
I love PiYo- and did it again last night. But, like I said, I bore easily and sometime I just DON'T want to push PLAY! Sometimes I want to get a workout in while watching the news or a quick workout while my kids are playing. I know that it sounds so much easier to just push the dang PLAY button, but why can't I do a little of this and a little of that? Well, I can and I will!
Taking the day off tomorrow for the HOLIDAY! Happy 4th!
