This technology thing is getting me mad!! I still can’t figure out my error on page when I go to write on my blog!!! So I write on my IPhone. But the last blog entry I wrote is gone from my notes on my phone now. Technology is not my friend right now!
I digress…
I will never be able to replicate my eloquent words but here’s a go:
I have been working out technically since I was in High School. Go New Dorp!! I was the only girl who opted for the non-traditional gym class when I signed up for weight training. But, who ever said I was traditional? No, I was a beast then. And I am a beast (minus my shoulder injury) now! When I went to College, I too opted for East Gym Weight Lifting and HidyOchiai karate as my selections. Go Binghamton!!
I worked out for many reasons throughout my life: to lose weight, to build strength, to grow cut shoulders and back, for my mental health, for my physical health, and because I like it!
Some say that there needs to be a weekly limit on working out. Stay home with the family. Rest. Blah Blah Blah. Some say let’s work out day in and day out. Be a bad ass. Progression. Blah Blah Blah. I have been on both sides of the fence. And today I am happy with working out! Whenever a friend calls, texts, facebooks, or tweets me. It’s a sign. Encouragement. Joy. Why miss out?? No excuses! Tomorrow is tomorrow and today is now so make it work! Today I work out not to stay physically healthy, you should see what I eat. Today I work out not obtain cut shoulders and back (Are you buying this one?). Today I work out to maintain harmony; Harmony within my mind, body and soul. Can you imagine me saying these words out loud? Try it.
Do you hear yourself?
You believe it, right?
It’s true. When I work out I am working towards a progression of synchronization, not perfection.
Why do you work out?
And what does working out to you mean? I used to think only weight lifting was working out. But silly me! I have added Spinning, Running, Kettlebells, turning tractor tires over, and circuit training among others to my mix!
Remember next month is Breast Cancer Awareness month. Go get your mammography! I just got my first!
