Losing weight has been filled with ups and downs - both emotionally and on the scale. However, managing to lose weight and continuing to grow stronger, faster, leaner, and fitter has been an amazing experience. I've discovered many things about myself, and this blog has helped me keep record of those moments. I still have a long way to go, but I'm moving forward with a positive attitude as I attempt to keep Workin' it Out.
A much needed day of rest for me today -- my ass and thighs are definitely feeling the impact of all those squats and lunges from yesterday's Body Pump class ... totally a good kind of sore though :)
The trainer that I'm hopefully going to get a chance to work with soon posted this video on his website:
I'm a LONG way from here, but damn, what motivation!
I LOVE body pump!! My thighs always hurt two days after that one!!!! I actually had to give it up while I train for my half marathon!!! I was always to sore to run!!
Don't let the video discourage you!! It's meant to empower you :) These women must have gone through months and months (if not years) of training ... you've got to start somewhere. Go for it!! :)

DeleteI am always amazed at what the human body can do! Awesome video, thanks for sharing! Now I have to take a nap, just watching it exhausted me ;).
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean! Seeing those women run up and down the stairs carrying sandbags was exhausting! :D
