Default New Life, New Log - by Elizabeth

Hello!

Welcome to my gym log!

Here, I'll be posting my workouts as I sculpt myself a new curvy toned bod with a luscious poping booty

Seriously, though, I'd 'settle' for good health and a fit body, but a nice round poping booty would be nice, lol!

My journey will be long and hard-fought, so if you want to get to know me better, please feel free to stop by my journal, as well.

So, here's to good health and inspired lives... Happy Reading!

Oooops, I also forgot to mention in my intro that my husband and I have been married for 1.5 years, and we're hoping to have our first baby soon (hopefully sometime next year). So, I have an extra special reason to get my body in tip-top shape

I have to admit, I keep forgetting to update this log

But, I HAVE been working out hard - mostly strength training...

Next week, I'll be including more cardio, but strength/flexibility training is always my priority.

More details next week

BERRIES visit has inspired me to dust this log off and start recording my workouts again because I have been busting it out almost everyday!


So, let's see.... I don't have my in-home personal trainer anymore. Lately, my workouts have been focused around yoga and 'The Fight Club.' (I joined this MMA gym with my hubby a few weeks ago - I wrote all about it in my journal).

Mon, Wed, Fri - I'm at The Fight Club and it's usually: kickboxing, treadmill or cross country skiing machine, strength training.

Tues, Thurs, Sat - Yoga! ...either a Kundalini at home video or a hot yoga class.


Round, poping booty... I'm on my way!

Okay, I guess I better put this in writing here....

In a fit of delusion, DH and I signed up for a half-marathon last night (to be held on September 26, 2010)!!!

If you want more details, check out the entry in my journal dated for the same day as this post.

Training begins tonight at The Fight Club.


Also, this Friday, Saturday and Sunday, I'll be attending classes/lectures at the Yoga Conference in Toronto.
