It's been a couple months, but I am back to where I need to be :)
I was doing p90x which I will pick up again in a few days. I am starting over basically. I had to take a 4 month break from that due to working overnights remodeling stores (lots of strenuous physical work) so I was too exhausted to keep up. But now I have much more free time! Can't wait to get into it again.
For now I am walking, and doing some simple toning exercises to ease back in.
Goals for the month of August:
1. Stay on track with p90x
2. walk at least 3-4x per week
3. yoga a few times per week to relax/focus
4. DRINK MORE WATER!!!!!!Genesis 1:12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind,
and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind:
and God saw that it was good."The most sublime truth of all has never been stated or written or sung,
not because it is far away and can’t be reached but because it is so intimately close,
closer than anything that can be spoken." - Gangaji

Walked for an hour today with a full body stretch afterward.
Thinking that I might do this as my night routine once the 4th week is up. I just feel really charged up with a lot of energy afterward when I walk. Plus it really de-stress me in a big way. I'll give it a go and see how it goes.Jesus Is My Savior! The greatest love story ever told!!

Tonight is Krav again.

I do love Krav.. Its been so good for my whole family.
Last night at Krav we did a ton of leg work. Lots of kicks (which is my favorite). It was such a good work out. I was totally sweating and loving it.

We did Krav last night..
Today we are hiking the incline.. Its a stretch of old railroad that runs a mile up and covers 2000ft. elevation in that mile.

I apologize if this is a stupid question but what is Krav?
Today I walked in the morning, and tonight I will go for another long walk with the dog. Starting P90 again tomorrow. Wish me luck!Genesis 1:12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind,

Not a stupid question at all... Krav Maga is Hebrew for Contact Combat and its an Isreali form of martial arts. Its a little more rough and street smart though :)
Did the incline today. Oh boy did that burn. It took us 2 1/2 hours to go up and down the incline. Coming down we did a walk/jog which was nice.

I hit the gym 6 days a week (always taking a break on the Sabbath) and burn between 800-1200 calories each day!
