I started my combination workout regimen yesterday. I got home from work just before 6. Took the dogs on a short walk. I watched an episode of 90210 - which I realized I had been to the Greek where Kelly celebrated her 21st birthday! It was pretty nice to have an hour to unwind with the dogs and watch my favorite reruns. Then I got changed and walked to the little fitness center in my apartment complex. I worked out on the treadmill for a little over 20 minutes. I even worked my way up to a jog for a few minutes. I went to do the stationary bike, but that is dreadfully boring and I couldn't even people watch. It was too far away from the windows. I can say I don't like this workout as much as Bikram. I don't sweat as much. I enjoy the challenge of having people around me and me feeling like I can't get away with being lazy. I don't feel like I get the same workout on the treadmill.
I do have one major accomplishment to report. The past 3 times I have been to class, I have moved to the next step of camel. If you remember it made me sick to just put my head back. Well, on Saturday I was able to reach back and grab both feet to go into a full back bend. Thinking it was a fluke Saturday, I went again that afternoon. I did it again! So, on to this morning... It happened a 3rd time. It must not be a fluke.
I have continuously improved as time moves on. I can only imagine this never ends. The body is designed to be able to do miraculous things. Over time anything is possible. At the end of the day - I am learning patience.
