4 hrs of Weights, ZUMBA, Kickboxing and Pilates - all in the same day!

Before I get into my blog, I want to thank Kama for being a wonderful buddy, leader and a good friend.  Sweetheart, my heart goes out to your for your loss this year.  I’m so sorry you lost your dad earlier in the year and now your mother.  Words can not express my sorrow.  You are in my heart my dear friend.  Please take care of yourself.  I Love you.  We all love you!  She’s in a better place, she’s among the angels now.  BIG HUG!  I will talk to you soon.

Thank you buddyslimmers for your kind support on  my last blog.  I never thought of myself as a strong person. I called it survival.  From nothing comes everything.  I have so much and blessed with so much love.  I never take anything for granted.  I enjoy what I have and not lust over what I don’t.  I am in complete peace with myself.  :)

Yep!  I did it!  This was the day I was waiting for.  I wanted to see how much I can get in today.

I did a total of 4 hours! :)  Pushing beyond my own limits.   Despite spending last night and early morning at the hospital with Rod and his mom, she was sick last night, I still woke up and ate for a weight class.  My only gripe with the class, she stopped 45 min. into it and did abs.  Darn it because I have Pilates for that.

I went to a different gym for my 3 hour marathon.  I had fun with Zumba.  Holly and Tracey - girls, I did it with you two in mind.  I have two left feet but  I did my best, stuck with it and had a ton of fun.  I’m going to try it again on Friday after my kickboxing class.  I’ve always been shy about dancing; yah, I can do a little damage when I’m drunk, but dancing and choreography is hard for me.

Right after Zumba I had my kickboxing class.  The gym I went to is the West Coast flagship Sports gym.  The Group X room is decked out almost like a club with lights and all.  It’s fun doing kickboxing with only the strobe lights and some good loud music.  It’s a new routine and a ton of fun.

Right after kickboxing comes Pilates.  By this time I’m tired.  Even though I ate a lot of complex carbs, protein, green tea and water before my 3 hour push, I needed fuel.  So I grabbed a bar and ate half of that.  Pilates was great.  I stuck with it all.  Have to, can’t give in now right?  :)

    Dang! You rocked it out today Nance! That is awesome. On another note, I am so sorry to hear about Kama’s mom. You are right, Kama is a great BUDDY and I am so sorry for her losses. I am sure we will all be thinking about her and sending her our love and support. Thanks for letting us know. Have a good night Nancy:)

    Girl where do you find the time?! I can’t imagine where I could get an extra 4 hours from. I guess that is why you are suceeding and I am not. Proud of you - keep up the AWESOME work.

    Great job! Are you sore yet?

  8. Terry @ December 30th, 2008

    As always, it eats my comment.

  9. olas @ December 31st, 2008

    For me it’s unreal! I can die after two hours!:)
    You are my inspiration! When I will get better, I will go to Pilates.

  10. formygirl @ December 31st, 2008

    Wow you are awsome lady! I am find I like exercise the more I do it. I have had to get to where I could do it. Coming from 386 to 250 made me be able to do me. When I lose the next 100 I hope I will be able to have a marathon of my own. For now my 45mins a day is pushing me to the limits. Way to go you inspire me as to what can be for me.

    Great job on the work out chick. That kickboxing class sounds like a ton of fun. I too, am so sorry to hear of Kama’s loss. I’m praying for her and her family

  12. astrongnewme @ December 31st, 2008

    I love pushing myself too and seeing how much further I can go. Pilates is the best ab workout! It always feels like you’re barely moving but still hurting like hell anyway! :)

  13. buttercup @ December 31st, 2008

  16. suzyburr13 @ December 31st, 2008

    Wow you sound like you’re having fun with working out… I’m finding my routine boring so I can’t wait to switch it up I think I’m going to find some dvd’s to do at home. Keep on girly! Your looking great :o)

  20. khmerbeauty @ December 31st, 2008

    Debbie and Becky! You got me coughing and laughing at the same time! Yah, I’ll take care of it! :)

  21. khmerbeauty @ December 31st, 2008

    Terry, yes I am sore beyond words, no pain just soreness. It’s a good thing.

  22. khmerbeauty @ December 31st, 2008

    The Pilates instructor incorporated weights so it was a core challenge and some. I’m surprise I can lift my arms. MJ - loved your blog today!

  23. khmerbeauty @ December 31st, 2008

    Anj and Kama! Sorry about running out on you guys this morning. I’ve been sleeping all day trying to knock the fever off it’s feet.

  24. Dagny @ December 31st, 2008

    Go girl! What a great workout!
    Unfortunately, my great workout yesterday left me sore! ouchies
    So Zumba is like dancing? I wouldn’t be good at that! In workout dvds, I like if they don’t have complicated or complex things, because half the time I can’t keep up with the steps.
    But then again, if I don’t try new things, I will never progress!

  25. thrive @ December 31st, 2008

    you are just rocking the world! thanks for the constant inspiration! i want to be you when i grow up,too! Hope you feel better soon and Rod’s mom too.
