Mottos

Today’s 43 had my legs burning!!!  I used one of my favorite pieces of equipment:

BOSU
BOSU

I started with both feet on the BOSU – did a squat

then stepped my left leg behind into a curtsey lunge.

After 43 on the first side, I didn’t know if I would be able to do another set with the other leg because my quads were burning!! However, I don’t want to be unbalanced so – 43 more!!

I think the hardest part was the little squat in between each lunge – basically, the leg that stayed on the BOSU was working the entire time!!!

6:00 am Boot Camp was a lot of toning work with just a few cardio bursts in between!  We used resistance bands and I’m pretty sure that my shoulders will be sore tomorrow!!

And, I’m still doing Insanity Asylum – but only 2 more days left!!!!  Today was Back to Core (probably the “easiest” one of the whole program!) and Relief – 25 minutes of stretching.  I did the whole stretching one even though it’s not my favorite – I might have entertained myself with my phone but I still stretched!!!

 I think that sometimes people have a motto that “sums” them up in just a few words – the following is one that I love!Screen shot 2013-06-19 at 8.46.23 AMAnd, sometimes a motto is something that you are trying to achieve in your life.Screen shot 2013-06-19 at 8.43.57 AM

 Even kids have mottos – that they apply to their lives.

I’ve been trying to decide if I have a specific motto that I live by.  I think if I had to pick one thing (other than Suck it up Buttercup!!), I would say –

Always do YOUR best!!!!!

 

Do you have a motto (or mottos) that you live by?

Happy Wednesday!!!
