B.L.O.G.S.
Body – I continue to feel the changes in my body. It is amazaing how quickly my body adapts to the changes I am instilling. I also noticed that my body also reacts when I revert to old behaviors. This past weekend I went to a really good friends wedding in New Mexico. It was your typical yummy stuff....wine, red meat, mash potatoes, shrimp, and wedding cake (red velvet to be exact). And yes...I ate it all! My body was not too happy. I noticed that I felt uncomfortable, heavy, had heartburn, and my stamina was NOT there. My solution....extra cardio and back to my healthy eating ways this week!
Learning – I am learning the true power of self talk. When I feel tired or that I just can't give my all...my stern inner voice kicks in! She won't let me give up and I push through once I realize my potential and invision my golden finish line :) I am also learning the importance of stopping myself when I reach failure (in other words...when I just can't do that last rep or I do it sloppy). It's better to complete a move successfully then half-assed lol
Observations – I would have to say how tough it really is to eat out and COMPLETELY be healthy. Being out of town this weekend and out of my element, I found it hard to try and get in my usual fruits and veggies because I had no idea where I was half the time and if it really is "healthy" how places claim. However, it is not impossible and you just really have to ask questions (how is it cooked, etc) and read the fine print.
Goals – As always my goal is to get in shape by building my stamina, increasing my weights, and practicing correct form. I truly do believe they all go hand in hand...so working on one will help out with the other.
Set next weeks goals – My goal is to still get some sleep. This will be the first weekend that I will not be traveling so I plan on being very nice to myself and just relaxing. After working out of course :)
hey girl.... we can met up at Ballys to lift together if you want to focus on form :)
