Boot Camp

Losing all this extra fat has been a big thing for me. And well now that I am working from home and have more flexibility with my time I have signed for Female Only Boot Camp! Two days a week for 4 weeks. And no I did not select to be up in butt early morning because I know that I would only set myself up for failure, and in addition, when damoomoo is working audits, he isn't home... but the latter really didn't matter to be honest!

So I am signed up to attend 9am to 10am thinking that VV would still be kind enough and allow for that morning "breeze". HA... what breeze! It already reaches 70 degrees before 8am!! Oh well, I have my mat, towel, chilled water, and my light weights in tow.

DAY ONE
I missed the official day one because I was still home sick with the boys. so I actually started on Day two---details, details---i am still out of shape!
I did see a part of VV that I never knew of...actually going past Baldo's there is a whole quaint area with large Victorian homes and nicely kept lawns, and a beautiful park with tons of shade! Now I know where to take the kids for a playground without their butts getting burned going down a slide! I was almost late because I was sitting at the one park I knew of which was wrong but realized it when I saw a bunch of old white men playing tennis on the courts.

We started with warm-ups: knee high jogs, "butt kicker" jogs, backwards jog, and a grapevine thing. It seemed over a short distance but I was already TIRED! But it was the fitness test day. Timed mile "run" which was 2 1/2 times around the park perimeter (thank goodness for the shade), but had it's little elevations. I completed in 13:27--- yeah hella long and I won't even blame that on my running nose! I completed only 15 sit-ups and 34 push ups. Oh but that was not the end... we did 20 step climbs leading with each leg and 20 more bench stuff to help the triceps. All I know is that I am already sore and I am putting the MK Mint Bliss lotion to good use!

So please keep me in your prayers that I survive.. If you know me all this outdoorsy workout stuff--- aww hell-- all the workout stuff in general has not been my thing. Let's just pray that I will gain some stamina and get rid of the flapping arms, muffin top tummy and thick thighs---but most of all just get healthy again!

okay back to work--- till next camp on Tuesday
