My goals for Christmas

My goal

Turbofire day one of the inferno program.

Workout fire 55 is all done!! That workout is such a fun one it is so awesome...I love how Chalene is so motivating! She always keeps me moving! Drinking my shakeology and blogging..woo hoo I feel so accomplished today.  I really love turbofire ..such a great program!

bad back solutions

Well recently I have hurt my back. I don’t know what really that I did to it.  It has seriously put a wrench in my fitness goals but  I will not let this get me down! I went to a chiropractor and he said it was not with my spine and he adjusted me.  I felt a little better after that visit but not 100%. So instead of my given my money away to the chiropractor I have decided to heal myself.  I am taking what he has told me and what I already know. I have been doing a lot of steady cardio lately and my body is telling me….hey! Slow down. So this is what I shall do!

The plan~ Instead of doing cardio I will be doing yoga and foam rolling. When I do yoga I will be picking from Turbofire Stretch 40, P90x Yoga or p90x2 yoga.  The foam rolling is from P90x2 and I would recommend this program for anyone that is sore and needs your body to function better! Really when I do this video I feel so much better is is amazing! 

I also have decided to use the heating pad after my workouts so that I help whatever that is tight in my back to work itself out. I remember a time when my back went out when I was a bigger girl and I would just basically give up. Stop doing anything and eat too much because I was depressed. But with my new life I need to be active! I need to not let my emotions send me to the cookie jar or the Halloween candy stash. I want to be strong about my decisions!

Tracking my diet is going to be key in this as well because I wont be burning as many calories as I would with the cardio I was doing. So I have to lower my calorie intake…this will be hard but I can do it and I need to be strong! I will Be Strong When I am WEAK Brave when I a am SCARED and HUMBLE when I a am Victorious!

Update on me

Well my back is still out of whack slightly. I visited a chiropractor and he said do light workouts and yoga. So starting tomorrow I will be doing daily yoga sessions along with recovery and mobility and light jogging. I really need to get my back worked out.  I will be incorporating core workouts and back strengtheners. I have been feeling really weak lately and I really need to stop that. I am strong and I can do this. My back will heal. I just need to take care of it.

Lazy Saturday?? Heck no

Today I got to sleep in...Ohh it felt so good. I procrastinated most of the day. Didn't get much done. Was almost a lazy Saturday.  Then I decided I needed too get my workouts in.  I did p90X2 pap upper. I know I improved on some of the moves like the superman and the plank on med ball. I am getting stronger. Ohh yeah...that marks the first week of the third phase all done! I always do two workouts. So the next workout was Turbofire fire 30. I wore my 2 lb weighted gloves. I love it. 

Dinner tonight was lean beef mushroom stroganoff. Ohh wow it was so so amazing. I made it entirely from scratch. My daughter even said... Mom you can never buy the box stuff again.  I never intend too!
