Goal: 200 push-ups, team challenge & 2 hr circuit train

Last night’s yoga class was tough.  It’s a power yoga class and the instructor is relentless; because I’ve been doing my own push-up regimen for about a month or so, when we did them in class it was a breeze.  My only gripe with last night was a latecomer who plopped her matt too close to me while wreaking of cheap, bad perfume.  Not only that she had poor form, her breathing was off and loud and she talked a lot - DURING CLASS.  Ok, so I’m happy for you that you finally did a pose correctly, but must you talk to “me” when I’m trying to concentrate on my practice?  Yoga is a very personal journey and not a partnership; when someone breaks my concentration I don’t take it well.  I couldn’t hold a tree pose if my life depended on it.  Thank you nameless lady for talking to me during class. :(  So after class I told her that I’m sorry I couldn’t congratulate her for her accomplishment, but that she threw me off my game by talking.   Can you tell I’m PMSing a bit???

 Anyhow, today is a new day.  My goal is to get 200 push-ups in throughout the day along with the team challenge.  I did well over 200 on Saturday so I know I can do it again.  Tonight I have a two hour circuit training + strength and cardio routine planned.  It’s going to be rough wrestling equipment away from people on a popular night like tonight.  There is a kickboxing class but it starts later and I don’t have more then 2 hrs to spare. 

 Food - finally have one night of success with no grazing.  Hope I can do it again today.

    Funny, I showed up at my first yoga class late last night. (I was at the dollar store trying on new perfumes) and this lady next to me kept giving me the cold shoulder. I mean I was trying to talk to her and everything and she was trying to act like I wasn’t there. LOL!

    You’re right, today is a new day! Let’s get out there and live it up!!!!

    I totally agree, there is nothing worse than a strong smell during yoga. You are amazing, if you can get that much exercise in I can do a little!

    I love this blog. I’m totally not into yapping at the gym either. I just want to tune into my spirit and accomplish a good sweat.
    She was breathing loud? That’s what made me belt out laughing. It’s too funny. Yep, you’re pms’ing’, and the breathing lady just got the brunt of it. Your regimen is awesome and I’m taking note. I’m excited about working out through the upcoming holidays and being in top form.

    I can’t stand the smell of anything when I’m working out. Any smell of perfume be it beautiful or cheep…. I want to puke. Not a good thing…lol

    Note: Ok, I did 120 push-ups; 80 short of goal, well my arms, triceps and biceps were so sore from Saturday’s 200. I did my best and I’m happy. :) :(
