Sweat It Out!

I took the Bosu Challenge class today. I haven’t been in a while. Straight BOOT CAMP, but I loved the feeling I had when it was over. The instructor worked us out! I was drenched in sweat throughout the class. Thank goodness for that mini towel. I used to hate the bosu because it requires so much balance, but I love it now! So good for your core. Still growing to love the push-ups she made us do the on the bosu! That was painful lol.

So I made the decision to no longer do modified push-ups (Leida, I know you’re doing this too girl!). I want to build up my regular push-ups. I need to increase my upper body strength and I want that sexy back! I did 25 regular push-ups today and to some, that’s probably nothing, but to me it’s a start and a great start. I’m going to focus on increasing the # while also listening to my body so I don’t injure myself.

The 5K race is in 16 days!!!! I’m not ready for it! Damn the treadmill and damn this sucky Boston weather. It’s supposed to be nice this weekend so hopefully I can get a run in, but I’m going to be super busy this weekend. Tomorrow would be my best bet because Sunday I’m volunteering for the MS walk from 9:30am-4pm and then at 4:30pm I’m meeting with my group from school to work on our project.

P.S. I maintained my weight this week. I’m happy with that! Now I know I just need to work harder!

    Thanks for the advice on my maintaining issue, I did decide to switch things up… You sound like you are doing awesome!! I can’t imagine doing sets of regular push ups…They are just annoying to me and painful rofl… I just can’t do it yet, I can do 3 sets of 4, thats it for me:(

    I know what you mean about the bosu.. I bought a reg work out ball and doing my crunches on it is uber hard!!! All about balance!!! Hard but it pays off!! Keep it up girl!!!
