"Get in shape girl!"

Well, I've been busy but I'm done with this semester...finally! That means time to catch up on work and working out and maybe attempt to have a social life for a few weeks.

Today's workout:

30 minutes of globo cardio (I don't want to hear it!)
Then:
Complete five rounds of:
On the rings, lower from an inverted hang, slowly, with straight body and arms, 7 reps
15 Ring Push-ups
Move SLOWLY and methodically attempting perfect execution. Ideally this is done with two pairs of rings - one pair hung app. 8' off the ground and the second 4" off the ground.

My impression: I suck at front lever work.

Then I was waiting around the gym for the guys to finish and for some reason remembered the workout stuff I had when I was probably 6 or 7 years old. It involved a ballet bar, gymnstics ribbons, some hand weights, a visor, and I even had arm bands and leg warmers. The little kit was called "Get in shape girl!" and I think this may have kicked off my obsession with working out.

Here's the old commercials:



Happy Birthay to Meeeeeeee!!!!!!

Short blog update with much to follow in the coming week. I've been uber busy with school (and we know school comes first right) so the blogging has been nonexistent. But today is my 30th (yes 30th) birthday! OMG. It's weird to be 30. I don't feel 30....what does that feel lie anyway? There will be a much more reflective and "deep" post later. But for now:

I love you guys. Everyone who wished me a happy birthday and knows how hard I've been working the last few weeks, thank you for the encouragement and the support.

Mike and Kristy thank you for the bottle of wine. You guys are the best. Love, love, love you both.

Chuck, well words just can't explain it all...

Mom and Dad, thank you so much for everything. I'm almost a big girl. One more year.

Oh and hears to looking better at 30 than I ever did at 20.
