So you guys I have been having this struggle with being disciplined in my exercise routine. I've really been wanting to work out but I've been so tired, I just couldn't seem to get my motivation up to just do it. Well, my motivation came in the form of a dream last night. I dreamed that I was at Billy Blanks's house and he was so gracious and kind. Then all of a sudden he was like "Let's work out!" With a confused face I got up all slow, and he was like count it out 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 (if you've ever done a TaeBo video you're familiar with the power count). He almost killed me during that workout! When I woke up this morning, I was like "That's it! Billy is coming to me in a dream?? Ok, this is clearly a sign. Nothing it going to keep me from working out this morning! No more excuses!" I moved the coffee table out of my den and kicked it into gear. I've never done a 50 minute ab workout. There were standing exercises and floor exercises & it incorporated cardio as his workouts always do. Though my abs were burning (especially during the floor exercises - FIYA!!!) I feel like I can take on the world today!
So after work today, I'm going to buy a tape measure and record my measurements & track my progress. I gotta set some workout goals and strive to achieve them! People tell me I look fine, but for me it's not about how my body looks necessarily, it's about being the healthiest I can be. I'll report back! And if you don't hear me checking in periodically about my working out, call me out in the comment section! I need all the accountability partners I can get!!
Love it!! Billy will definitely keep you motiviated through the workout and it always seems like he's talking directly to you. Great job Nita, keep up the great work.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lateshia! Yes, Billy has a gift of connecting to his audience! I'm going to go for it again in the morning!
