Thoughts on fitness: Part 3

August 10, 2009

I woke up this morning, and realized that my entire body ached. I guess that between my barre workout last night and my fall, my poor body just wanted some rest…so I listened. I had planned to do Pershing Square 2 (for the last 3 days!!) but something always seems to happen before this type of workout. Interestingly, I have previewed the workout and it looks hard, but fun. I really like Pershing Square 1, and can’t wait for my hands to heal so that I can actually try Pershing Square 2. I am proud to say that I haven’t let my injuries get the best of my workout routine, though! Last night, I managed to do some of the weightless arm exercises from The Tracy Anderson Method Presents Mat Workout DVD, as well as the pretzel/clam combo from Tracy Effinger’s Squeeze Stronger (fitness workout). Umm….OUCH. I think that my legs hurt worse than my hands for a brief moment. I love that I can pick and choose parts of my barre workouts and make some use of my time…and it felt SO good to workout. I can’t wait to do that again tonight. I think it is goingto be awhile before I’ll be able to do anything where I put my weight on my hands, but that doesn’t give me an excuse to stop running or doing my other workouts…it just means I need to get creative and modify my routine.

Sounds like a fabulous workout! I love it when I’m sore the next day. Makes me feel like I did my best! :)
