Training: Jan 23, 2011


Jan 23, 2011

It's SUNDAY!! I've decided to designate Sundays as a break day from the usual workout (for now - this will likely change as our big bike ride approaches). I'll be going to an hour-long hot yoga class every Sunday afternoons.

Also, as a side note, I've started stretching for at least 10 minutes in the morning and again before bed.

Todays goals:
Participate in my first ever hot yoga class (60 minutes long)
When given the option of multiple levels difficulty, do the most difficult one
Be aware of the muscles being used

Achievements:
I completed the class & all goals :)

Thoughts:
I felt amazing after this class - just purely and completely healthy and refreshed. I'm not sure how else I can really describe it. During the class there were a few times I was challenged to hold the pose for the full length but I did! I appreciated this as a workout because it worked my entire body.

I'm looking forward to really pushing myself this coming week to work up to a consistent heart rate of 180 on the elliptical. Let's see how I do!

Peace.
