I most certainly could not see the whole staircase when I started re-focusing on my health a few weeks ago but I do believe I can see a little more of that staircase now. Today's workout included:
- Run/walk the trails, twice - totaling 4.6 miles
- Modified push-ups, 4 sets of 25
- Squats, 2 sets of 25
- 60 stairs, 2 sets
- walk to the gym
- 2 different elliptical machines, totaling 50 minutes
- Yin Restorative Yoga, 1 hour
- walk home from the gym
My yoga class today was a little harder than usual. There was one pose I could only hold for a few minutes because of where the pain in my left collar bone flares up from where it was injured in my accident. Luckily, the pain is rare these days but there are certain things I do in my workouts that flare things up a little. Now I know to modify that posture in the future. I also have to let myself believe that the yoga philosophy of not comparing yourself to others to judge your performance holds true. It's not about what others can do, its about how I did in comparison to the last time I practiced yoga. Now if I could just believe that, things would be great. I feel really good about how much I am accomplishing in a day in regards to fitness. I really need to stop weighing myself so often, it is starting to make me crazy and I'm like a junkie that needs a fix....just let me jump on the scale and make sure its moving in the right direction....again, I need help.
