February 14-18th Back to Feeling the Burn!

After two weeks of limited access to the gym, I was left thirsty for adrenaline. To quench my thirst, I cleared the evening schedule and hit the gym HARD three days this week. I started out with my latest break though of last week...back fulls

I suspected that perhaps it would take a bit to get back into it...and I was right. One thing that I find very hard is learning a move....then coming back to it. There is always the tendency to oversimplify a move in your mind after you have landed it before...quite disastrous, as it causes you to over think a move...however you must eventually overcome this because ultimately you need to know EXACTLY what is going on throughout the move and be able to manipulate it if you wish to "master" a movement....a tough thing to do that I am sure anyone can tell you only comes with experience and TIME.

Eventually I made it through the struggle with the help of my good friend Colleen who pushed me to land it in "three more or not at all" ...eating my own advice as I often do lol...What a tough girl...she is learning the discipline of resisting the urge to train with an injury, always a hard thing.

The week went by fast but judging by my intense soreness I feel it was a good one lol. I also worked some kick the moons which went delightfully. I hope to keep them up and take them outside when it gets warm.

We had a pretty good close to the week by creating a multi-level obstacle course to be traversed by handstand...epic

Loving the Olympics...
