Update on my BFF and I

A few weeks ago, I introduced you to my BFF for the next six weeks. Remember this guy?

My new BFF

Well he and I have had our moments. He, along with my trainer, have pushed me way out of my comfort zone. First, learning how to workout with the step was a challenge. I am not the most coordinated person. Second, it may be only 20 mins, but I am moving for the full 20 mins at a crazy pace. At the beginning, I had a hard time keeping up. Even now, three weeks later, I still will rewind and see what the heck is going on. I am not ashamed to admit that sometimes, I fall to the floor and cry.  Why do I do it then, some may ask? Well, I am not a quitter.  There are always going to be things in life that are hard or impossible at the moment.  However, I put my big girl pants on, straighten the crown and jump back in. The mental changes that occur with finishing a program, running a hard race, etc. are just as, or sometimes, even more important that the physical ones.

Since starting this program, my core has gotten stronger, as have my shoulders. I am modifying less and most of the time, I do not dread the 20 mins.  Lets face it, unless it is running, cardio and I will never love each other.  We have a mutual respect for each other, but that is all. LOL!  As for any physical changes that one can see, I have lost 4lbs and 1 inch off my waist.   I will take it!

I am excited to finish up the next three weeks and see my overall results. If you are looking for a great workout, only 20 mins a day, 6 days a week, send me a message. This may just be the program for you.
