1/12/11 -- Hour of Power


Meet THE BEAST.

THE BEAST and I have an appointment every morning after I drop off Sugar at school.
We've been doing this for several months now.

I used to go to Zumba 4 times a week, but the class schedule doesn't fit into our routine this year.
So then I began dividing my time between the weight machines on the floor and THE BEAST.
30 minutes each.

I noticed that my muscles seemed to feel a stronger burn from THE BEAST vs weights.
So, I gradually moved to 45 minutes with THE BEAST.

I didn't think I could ever make it a full hour.
But today I decided to go for it.

And I made it.

701 calories burned.
That "1" totally counts, by the way.

Today's Joy:  The opportunity to have an hour of power every day...and grateful we purchased our gym membership while the facility was still under construction 2 years ago.  We could never afford the rates now.
