Good morning bloggies! It is snowing, but I refuse to talk about it. If I don’t talk about it, then it isn’t happening…right?
Anywho. Woke up with the roosters this morning (who were NOT in the snow. 😉 ) and headed to The Wellness Center to teach spin. My class is slowly building there, which makes me extremely happy! I snacked on half of this bad boy before class:
My knee was/is still giving me some trouble…but a quick dip in the hot tub after class seemed to help. I literally just held my knee at the jet for around 15 minutes. People probably thought it was slightly odd that I was straddling the walls of the hot tub to find the right knee spot. What we do for fitness. *sigh*
Rushed home to an empty jar of Almond Butter!
And had one man on my mind….
Today’s combo included….
- 1/2 Cup Oats
- 1 Cup Skim Milk
- 1 TBSP Natural Peach Jam
- 2 TBSP Flax Seed
- All the Almond Butter you can scrape from the sides 😉
2.5 seconds later…
Do I know how to clean out a jar, or what?!?!?! I think that deserves some sort of award…or honorable mention at the very least.
After breakfast, I won’t lie…I totally passed out into an hour coma. Spin class that early plus having another class at 12:15 and working tonight makes for an exhausting Wednesday. I thought a nap was in order. Got caught up on my other obsessions, “Intervention” and “Hoarders“. Anyone else watching these shows?!?! They fascinate me.
Pretty soon I was feeling snackish and grabbed my new cereal and trail mix for a yummy combo…
Combined these two, and snacked while I got caught up on burning some Class CD’s which I needed to do ohhhh so badly.
Yummmmm!
Off to finish answering some emails, and then to the YMCA to teach Express Spin! Can’t wait!
Have a good one bloggies!!!
Blogger Boy Question O’ The Day:
Whats your favorite type of Group Exercise class to take/teach, why? How often do you teach/take classes?
why don’t you live closer? we could bake, watch hoarders and work out. it would be lovely 😀
my favorite is zumba but spin is a close second. i miss teaching it, but legs couldn’t handle it on top of weights, running, yoga and zumba
enjoy the rest of your day!
I know right?!?!?! I have a killer Bad Romance mix for my weight class Thursday, it reminds me of you and Zumba, sista! 😉
My favorite class to take is a Bikram Yoga class. I used to take them 4 times a week. No one wants me teaching any classes. Trust me.
What exactly is Bikram Yoga? I seriously need to get back into Yoga just for flexibility/stretching purposes.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE my conditioning class that is held in my hot yoga studio. My yoga instructor also teaches an INTENSE class in the hot room. It’s only on Saturdays. 😦 Wish it was more often. I feel like I want to puke and collapse about 1/2 through. It’s like that new video that’s out – Insanity. Have you seen those infomercials for Insanity? I love them! They are totally motivating! Have an awesome day! I LOVE LOVE your blog too! You’re awesome!
I have heard so much about hot Yoga, and would ❤ to try it. I have seen Insanity, looks like it lives up to it's name. They gym I teach at on Wednesdays and Thursdays is doing a 90 day class where they complete the whole program! It's so awesome! Thank you so much for reading!!!!!! xoxox
And I thought I could get a jar clean! Damn boy, that’s talent.
My favorite class to take is spin, I love it! I go at least 3 times a week 🙂
I love my kickboxing/trx class! It is intense! I take 3-4 classes a week.
Sweatshop bootcamp (changes every week), XFIT bootcamp (outside), kickboxing and weights, and then kickboxing/trx.
I am class fanatic. I prefer working out in a huge group then by myself! Wish I could take one your classes but you’re a bit far away!
The pic of Mr. Oatmeal man….what’s his name? Mr. Quacker?!?! It totally CRACKED me up!!!! 🙂
hahahaha, I ❤ him!
Okay, so I tried the Luna Chocolate Peppemint Stick bar because of your love of it and “WOW!” I LOVED it – like Christmas 🙂
Hope the knee gets to feeling better!
I know right?!?!?! I will be so bummed if it is seasonal!
It’s not!! You can enjoy that bad boy year round.
GOOD! I was worried. 🙂
I teach spin 2-3 times a week and PowerSculpt 2-3 times a week (I alternate weeks sometimes). I love taking hard spin classes from someone else and I love taking pump classes to get new ideas! I also LOVE cardio kickboxing but can never go since it conflicts with my classes. 😦 And I miss all yoga (I haven’t been for SO long) and I especially miss Bikram (I’m too poor to keep paying!). In case Lu doesn’t answer you back, Bikram yoga is a 90 minute yoga class in a HOT room and you do the same 26 poses each classes. Your flexibility will be insane after one week!
That sounds like a booty kicker fo’ sho. I loooooove PowerSculpt/Body-Pump. We don’t own the “rights” to teach it at the YMCA, but I teach an almost identical version called “Total Body HIIT”….it is my baby and I LOVE IT. We work each muscle group as well as add in cardio interval blasts in between. I can literally wring my shirt with sweat when we are done. I agree, *taking* classes is almost always more challenging, and I LOVE getting ideas from other instructors.
I just discovered your blog and I love it!
My favorite group activity is yoga as everyone else has mentioned. I did the bikram yoga for 3 years and now I’m doing basic yoga at a local studio.
You guys have really got me thinking more about Yoga!!! I totally need to re-introduce it into my schedule! Thank you so much for reading!
My favorite is slowly and surely becoming yoga! Love it!
OMG, I could watch intervention all day long! I love running with my whole heart. But, my hip is bothering me this week, so I’ll be trying my first spin class this weekend! Scary, but exciting!
omg do not even stress!!! You will adore it! Also a little warning…you may be a little ”saddle sore” after the first class but I prooooomise it is only temporary….you will be golden! I want a full and detailed report please. 😀
