Can't Wait!

It's been a while since my last post. I've been super busy with working overtime as well as taking registrations for a yoga class I'll be teaching. I'm really working hard to try and save up for my trip. The bad thing is that all this working means I have less time to train. At this point the only free time I really have is an hour or so before bed and my days off. Wouldn't it be nice if we could do what we love all day long and not have to worry about making money? That's why I'm looking forward to this trip so much. The chance to do Kung Fu all day every day and not have work and other obligations getting in the way. I can't wait! Now that I have this goal it's almost all I think about. Every moment that I'm not working towards it is almost painful.

The push-ups are getting easier. The biggest struggle I've had is on the weekend. My boyfriend Steve and I went snowboarding and the next day I was really sore. Doing push-ups was really tough. I managed to do most of them and make the rest up later but I certainly didn't enjoy it. Most days I can do more in a row than I could before and my arms feel stronger. My advice to anyone else doing this....stretch! Stretch your arms, shoulders and pecs every day. I believe flexibility is as important as strength. Don't gain one just to lose the other.
