WOW! Is really all I can say at this point.  I wanted to up my cardio and I love doing TurboKick and Kenpo on the Power 90X.  I really haven’t had a chance to do this because i have really been busy with Lowe’s stuff.  People aren’t buying houses they are just fixing up the house they have and keeping me busy, which is a good thing. 

I have had to change up my routine a little and do some stuff on my own.  This is week 4 of the Power 90x challenge and I am working through it pretty good.  I teach a Yoga class for Hardin-Simmons Univerity for the Summer Session.  It starts at 9:10 and of course students these it really must mean something else.  So, I decided that I would start jogging around the track for about 30 minutes before Yoga.  I hate the run, but I know it really works for me. What? What the heck was I thinking.  Okay, so the jog went pretty good.  I worked on my breathing and stayed focused.  That is what yoga will do for you people.  Helps you stay focus on all areas of life.  I really felt pretty good that day.  I had to go put some blinds in after yoga class at the military base.  Just 3 blinds piece of cake.  Right!  I had to drill through metal and it was kickin my butt you all. 

Later that day, I had to teach TurboKick.  I really needed the extra calorie burn.  I burnt 503 calories that segment and earlier for the jog I burned up to 166 not much I know.  Met my goal for the day 750. 

Well, the next morning which was Wednesday, OMG, my stinkin shins were yelling at me.  “What the heck were you thinking?” they asked.  Those little babies were so sore all day.  Did I mention that I hate to run.  This is why.  Now, I have to ask myself do I want to run today?  I really need to because I did not yesterday and the Power 90X calls for cardio today. I hate to run.  Maybe, the treadmill sounds a little better and really easier on my knees and my little ol’ shins.

I really have to gear up for next week, because I want to start the doubles routine.  Ugh!  Do, I want to tackle that.  How can I?  I can’t seem to get the other routine in regularly.  Well, I have done really well, I have been keeping tracking on my worksheets Tony.  You would be soooo proud.  When am I doing to get the Plyo Legs in?  Legs and back are on Saturday.  I maybe doing 3 routines on Saturday just to get everything in.  Whewwwww! 

Finally started eating my oatmeal in the mornings and have way more energy.  It is good for you.  The girls in my morning class told me to quit eating it, I am really working them hard this week.  Hey, that is way they get for being on vacation.  Not my fault, they needed the boost, those slackers.  Ha They know I love them.  Okay, check back on my progess.

Remember the Breath is the most important part of anything.  It is literally life.  Learn to breathe deep.
