Fitness

Fitness has not had a permanent spot in my life over the past decade. Sad, but true. It is hard and too easy to say no. As I am getting older, I am seeing just how much my body yearns for it. It wants to be worked and sweated. It wants to feel pain of a good workout and I just love this new feeling. On top of getting about 45 minutes of total "no kids around" time, I feel that I am doing something so good for myself. I can't help but feel exhilarated every time I leave the gym.

I love walking in with ear buds already in, Pitbull usually blaring in my ears pumping me up, and jumping on the eliptical. I will work on my cardio for a while and then start some weight training. The most wonderful feeling is when I get up and my left knee is pain free. The arthritis that is robbing me of a pain free life, disappears when exercise is being done. It is wonderful. It is one of the main reason I keep going!

My goals in life, in regards to me, are pretty simple. Eat healthy-always and exercise - everyday. Even the little things that I can throughout the day will help me keep this healthy lifestyle going. Today the gym is not available because of our busyness and an emergency vet visit. But there are tons of yoga you tube's out there that I can follow along with this afternoon. A great way for me to refocus before a lazy night, AT HOME! The first one in over 4 days. I have so much to be healthy for!
