It's Wednesday!

FITNESS

Do you think stretching is working out? Like, if you spent 45 minutes really getting sweaty and you never jumped once, would you consider that a ‘workout’? Even that word workout! It sounds so sweaty and hard! There must be other words we can use to name our efforts to be fit. I have been toying with the word “training”. “Sorry I missed your call, I was just finishing up training.”, or “Do you want to meet me later to train?”. You get me, or no?

I had a crazy training session last week where I did stretching for 45 mins and wow! I was really sweaty! It was hard! Guys, yoga is hard! The breathing was tricky, but once you breathe and focus, it helps to keep you going.

Even if you don’t think yoga is considered training, like I do, one cannot deny, it is CHALLENGING! If you’re looking for some challenging fitness training, try some yoga, it’s pretty intense.

Yoga'd...

I did a tiny, little, baby, handstand yesterday in yoga! Me! It was awesome... I'm going to work on it a bit more before the next class in two weeks.  It's amazing the way the body works when we trust it.  At first my arms were in the wrong position and after looking around, I properly positioned my arms and boom! I was up! I think it's called a teddy bear something or another...

Anyways, I managed to get one leg completely up and straight and soon, I'll be able to do both!  I'm so pumped! Can't you tell? Over excessive use of exclamation marks...  I'm so proud of myself that I wanted to share!  Have a happy Monday?  Even though it's wet, cold and dank...

Peace
