Howdy!
It’s truly amazing what your mind, body and spirit can handle when you give yourself permission to blast past any barriers known to mankind. 
This morning, I woke up wondering if anyone got the license plate of the semi that ran over me (at least, that’s what it felt like!). So I figured I’d hold off on any workouts, and instead a.) sleep until the afternoon (ie, 5:30am or so), and b.) doing my workout later. Started working online, fed myself my beef bone/chili pepper soup, and began the workout.
I just finished Kenpo X. Remember, this is my recovery week (ha ha ha, I just love that delusion, recovery, ho ho ho . Actually, it really is, as no weight lifting is done, but still). Astonishingly, I felt in top shape, was totally ready to bring it, and did myself proud in the workout. I can now even pivot rather decently in those lovely jab/cross/hook/uppercut! moves!
I modified the workout as usual, mind you – during the jumping jacks, I did sitting-to-standing front kicks and side kicks. And I started doing a static stretch a friend showed me – I stand with my left hip to the wall, move away 2 feet, put up my left leg as high as it will go, and stretcccccccch. My gosh, do I feel that. Then I repeat to the right. Then I do my split stretches (I can get to 2 inches off the ground) and my hamstring stretches etc. I do miss Plyo with the Crescent-kicks-over-the-high-chair, but hey, that will come next week.
And that’s Day 24,
Barbara
ps – more Tony Horton goodies!
