Sleep has been on and off OK - the allergies are killing me and even though I don't have back pain, the leg pain is bothering at times and plus I keep thinking about when I will get better to go back to what I was attempting my goal with better back and front squats. I had to stop doing that until I am cleared by the chiropractor. This week Dr. Foglia said give it a go so I did go and meet up with the Fleet Feet NO Boundaries group once again and the running was not bad. I could not make it to Marvel but I did get in a Sparta class. I did very light weights and yes, there were squats- 5 sets of 100. It was not heavy but my legs were tired the next day. It was an intense workout. I also got in a Tiger's Eye class which I love - especially the 45 mins one. They are just right! So moving on!
Got to train in a group with Jackie Tues and Thurs and I am OK with it - because of the different exercises and the intensity of it. Maybe when Jackie has more time, I can get in some one on one training. I was worry about her when she got so quiet and focused that she actually stop talking and text. So I would just walk away and give her some breathing room until she feels like talking. So all what she wants to do is still foggy and new and it will take time. We in our lives change careers many times and we just have to find what makes us happy. I am sure she will!
I started using my new toy. I am an inversion table. I figure it can help with stretching my back and I think it is helping. The past Wed when I went to see Dr. Foglia, it felt a lot better. I will need to do more stretching and strengthening.
This past Sat I forgo the NOBO run and went to an Arrichion event at Clouds Brewing. It was great. Over 100 people came and Lisako talked through a vinyasa of mixing parts of all the classes- black opal, bloodstone, kystallos, topaz. Of course there are pushups and some form of plank- good class. Joe went too. It was most fun! Got to see lots of people whom I have not seen in a long , long while.
I really need to get back to doing more classes at Arrichion - truly the most friendly and positive people around.
I did a lot of cooking last weekend but nothing to bring. It was either lamb or pork. Last week, I outdid myself and did two trays of dinner- one lamb chop/lamb bulgoi and the other salmon- with roasted cauliflower and jasmine rice and kale salad.
I will post pictures later in my next post
