Brea Getting Fit

I was so excited to wake up and feel great this morning! I was a little worried that whatever has been bothering my tummy would continue, but thankfully that bug seems to have passed. Ish and I had an amazing interval run, and then I was excited to get back to Bar Method. I absolutely LOVE those workouts. I chose to do one of Burr’s older videos, The Bar Method Body – Designer Sculpting, because it incorporates many of my favorite moves, including the pretzel and back dancing. I also like the ab work, which somewhat surprises me, since I don’t generally like barre abs. I realize that I’ve only been on hiatus for a few days (thanks to the tummy bug!), but GOODNESS, did it BURN!! I think that’s what’s kept me hooked on Bar Method…it’s that every single time I do the workouts, my legs shake, my muscles scream, and I know that I’m making positive changes. Yeah, it’s painful, and sometimes I just want to quit, but I keep seeing my seat lift higher and my thighs get slimmer…so I just keep going. I’ve been totally amazed at how dramatic the changes in my body are…I actually bought a pair of size 6 pants the other day…and THEY FIT! (and yes, I did my happy dance…I think it was WELL deserved) I think that perhaps the most motivating aspect of the Bar Method workouts is seeing Burr and hoping that I can be that blessed after years and years of torturing myself. And yeah, it’s kind of fun. It feels SO GREAT to get back into my routine!! I cannot begin to tell you how amazingly energized I feel today, and tomorrow is going to be even better!!
