Burpees? Ain't nobody got time for that...

There's that saying...where there's a will, there's a way. At 7pm, I felt so incredibly drained I went upstairs to get changed and at 7:30 I had Steve and Parker looking for me because I never came back down. Where was I? Passed out on my bed, still in my clothes, and somehow I got under the blankets.



I don't know what happened. It's like it all just caught up to me and I was completely exhausted. I've been pretty tired lately. The days have been rough. I feel like I am juggling 30 balls in the air sometimes and it gets so overwhelming my body just shuts down. Frustrating for me because I want that energy, I want to feel good, I want to put my all in my workout. I keep thinking maybe I should get some bloodwork done to check for some kind of underlying autoimmune disease, or RA which they think I have due to this nodule that keeps popping up on my shoulder. I should probably do that huh?
Any doctors reading this blog?

Check it out-any ideas as to what this is welcome. It's painful, it hurts all the time and probably the reason why I'm so miserable and a bitch all the time. Or according to Steve I guess... The way I look at it is (and I'm trying to be more positive.) With my back going out almost a year to the day and being in pain from that to this shoulder issue immediately after that it's been 365 days of me being in some type of constant pain. You try and be f'n pleasant.



Anyway, I digress. So I got up at 7:30, got dressed, put Parker to bed and came downstairs. Looked at my Les Mills Combat schedule and almost cried. I could SWEAR today was 30 minute combat NOT high intensity shock plyo. I mean. Are you kidding me?? For 30 minutes straight I had to dig deep and jump around like a crazy person. Oh and did I mention burpees?



Apparently we had time for that. Lots and lots of time. Lots and lots of burpees. Lots and lots of lunges and squats and ski jumps. I'm dead to the world. But was it worth it? Of course it was worth it. Another workout in the books, almost 2 weeks down for Les Mills Combat and I'm feeling great (minus the whole second head on my shoulder and being tired and all. ha)

4 day weekend ahead with the fam, lots of fun stuff scheduled. Can't wait to relax, workout and eat my veggie burger on the 4th of July! Oh does anyone have any paleo alcoholic drink recipes? Clean eating libations? Let me know! :)

Til tomorrow!

I'm not a morning person.

Never have been, never will be. It's 10am and while my child and husband have been up since 6:45 and probably 5:45 respectively, I just rolled out of bed. Whoops.



That's why I'll never workout in the morning, I know it won't happen. Over the years I've tried to force myself to get up, unshowered (yuck) and try to bang out a workout. Again, that will NEVER happen. There's something about waking up after a long sleep with my hair all disheveled and feeling dirty and no coffee. No thanks. Give me 7pm any day and I'll rock it out.

I'm sore. Like really sore. I woke up and was scared to get up for fear last night's workout killed my back. Perhaps that's the reason why I stayed in bed so late. (shhh.) But besides being sore, no signs of back pain (knocks on imaginary wood.)

Tonight is a 45 minute one so that will be a bit challenging for me today but we'll get it done! Interested in seeing what type of music they included on this one!



Looks like a beautiful day out there, hope you all will enjoy your Sunday Funday! :) What's everyone up to today?

Ohh, took my body fat today with our special body fat machine... 25.9% and BMI 24.4. I just looked it up and I'm between good and fair "for my age." For my age? No thanks, let's get that body fat under 20% please.



The good news is, I can only go down from there right???

Have a wonderful day!! Make it count!
