The benefits of a good warm up include reducing the chances of pulling a muscle once the workout begins. Despite a thorough warm up before last night's class, my mid-thigh area decided to spasm up after about 15 minutes, which presented a mild disadvantage when about 250 squats and lunges were still to come. I guess nobody noticed as I fought through the pain barrier. Pure commitment! |
Anyway, some great news from around the class last night, so I'd like to recognise the following...
Good luck to Rachel and Brian who travel to Kathmandu on Friday, to embark on a trek to the base camp of Mount Everest. Our best wishes go with you.
Well done to Paula who has been coming to kettlebells all summer. Paula has been concurrently working on her running ability. Paula reports she is up to running 4.5 miles - 7.5km - without a need to rest. All this from a standing start in the early summer. Nice one, Paula.
Massive congratulations to Helen Kellett for reaching an amazing target of weight loss. Helen has shed 3 stone in 12 months, through diet and and exercise. Well done Helen, you look fantastic for it.
Best of luck to Angela who has a place in April 15's London marathon. Training commences soon, for which she is currently preparing both mind and body.
Rory wants to reduce his body fat measurement in the coming months. Good luck with that Rory.
And to everyone else who I know each have a health or fitness goal in mind. Best of luck in the final months of they year. You can make massive progress in the next 6 weeks before the parties begin.
Finally, two links worth a read to ensure maximum dietary benefit. 1. ph balance http://www.acidalkalinediet.net/ and
2.) A Three Day Juice detox http://m.skinnyms.com/three-day-cleanse-detox/?replytocom=6564.
See you next week.
