Knees

Ouch, they hurt. So bad. I guess I went too far with the craziness of Monday. Why did I do that to myself? Haha. 

During this morning's GRIT Plyo my knees hurt the whole time. 

That's all I could think about...but I didn't hate today as much I normally hate this class. Don't get me wrong, it's my least favorite of the 3...but it wasn't as terrible today.

Michele and Kaitlyn really pushed us today. It provably didn't help that there were only 3 of us in class today...so it was easier to torture us each individually...haha...I'm joking...sort of. Haha

They both really pushed me today...and basically "knee" push-ups and such were all banned. They're not a problem in "real life," but GRIT is so exhausting that it's a challenge sometimes...but I'm getting stronger every class. 

My ankle hurt today too...but I'm just sick of it hurting all of the time...I refuse to baby it and do less because of it. 

As I do more workouts, I will re-strengthen my ankle...especially classes like Piloxing...my ankle feels a lot stronger  and doesn't hurt nearly as often...so I better just start making more time for myself and working out. 

Anyway, I guess I'm gonna take a nap before work...  

I'm glad that I went this morning though because I almost convinced myself to not go. 


I worked for 10 hours today and didn't go to body combat...which makes me sad...but my left knee and ankle hurt like hell and it's not worth actually injuring myself...plus, there's plenty to do at work  right now! Haha

2.5 hr workout night

I was too lazy to get out of bed at 6am to go to my actual GRIT session so I went to the 615 pm session instead...well, that meant Piloxing at 515, GRIT at 615, and Body Pump at 715. Basically, I'm insane. 

I'm sore today and paying for my crazy workout night...but that's ok...that's what I'm paying for, right? Yup. It sure is. 

Work 11-7 today then I guess I'm doing nails and wedding stuff and makeup stuff tonight. You know, emergency business. Ha.

CX Worx

Well, that was painful. In a good way. It hurt.,.but it's funny because it's exactly what I asked for...a class to work on my core...here ya go! Painful.

The resistance bands are no joke...we used the 2nd level bands...perhaps that was a bad idea?

Ok, so...need to do like 40000 wedding things. I finally emailed Pearls and Swine back with details on what I want my fascinator and the bridesmaids hair clips to look like too. 

I need to email the cake topper company too and finally place that order!!!!

GRIT, Body Flow, & Shakeology

Our 6am GRIT session was cancelled this morning because of and this terrible weather. 

Calli and I love pain...so we decided to go GRIT Plyo tonight in addition to tomorrow morning's re-scheduled GRIT. And then there's Friday's GRIT. That's 3 days in a row in case you didn't keep track of that. 

We love torture. Haha. I say that because I think I finally decided this is my least favorite of the GRIT sessions. 

It never gets easier, man. Never. 

But there are body and weight changes, so that's the point. 

When I was home last weekend and trying on my wedding dress...my aunt Mary remarked, "You have no cellulite!" I laughed...but it is a lot better than it was before Brickhouse. I wish I took more "befores." But when you hate yourself that much, it's too hard. 

I'm so glad that's all over though. It's only going to get better from here! 

After GRIT, Calli and I stayed for the unveiling of Body Flow. 

The first 5 minutes I couldn't help but keep thinking, "ugh. I hate this." But by the end of the class, I loved it. It's definitely a class that I am going to add to my regular workout schedule.

It was relaxing and I'm sure it will help my body be less tense and more flexible.

Guess I should head to bed...6am GRIT!

Oh, man.

Whoo! GRIT got me last night. I did Piloxing before GRIT last night and that was killer. I was going to do Body Pump after that been then I started talking to another member and missed half of the class so I decided not to take the other half. Haha. 

Because of work and going home last weekend, I only got to do GRIT once last week and I'm sure my body will pay for it this week! But that's ok. That's what I'm here for, right?
