I'm back from a weekend up in Boston.
I was pretty good with the diet (not perfect), and ok with the workouts. I'm a little frustrated with my mindset, which is more unhappy with not completely nailing the workouts, instead of happy to have managed what I did.
I've started taking Shivani's suggestion, and doing my meditation and a little stretching before the workout - and am really glad I am. For me, with all that's going on in my life and the disproportionate stress that I am feeling over even small things, it really helps to quiet down FIRST, and then I can be more present and more focused in the rest of the workouts. I am also less anxious afterwards.
Thanks Shivani!
I'm getting better at not getting dizzy when doing the back kicks. Despite the dizziness, I think those are my favorite kick by far. They always have been. KaPow! Those use my biggest and strongest muscles.

Yay Heather! I'm glad that worked out for you!
ReplyDeleteAnd the heat! How are you cooling off? I sweat my brains out even while sitting completely still. Seriously! I needed to stop and eat my frozen banana dinner in the middle of my kicks today.
Thought I was going to faint...
Stay cool!
