- I am finding it difficult to run right now.
Seriously, I'm so much happier in my BarreAmped classes. I'm doing Bootcamp right now, and I love it. It's brutal. But I get such a workout in an hour, and after six weeks, I'm seeing a vast improvement in my body. I have arm muscles! My waist is more defined! Even my running, when I do it, is better, faster, more fluid. But it's winter and in the winter I struggle with running. This is my fourth winter running, and every winter I struggle. I just need to get over this October-March hump and I'll be fine. I think.
All this cross-training is good for me though. - I am finding it difficult to run away from the baked goods. They are so, so good, and we live by some fantastic bakeries.
- I am having a hard time running away from cheese. I love me some dairy products.
- I am finding it hard to watch my weight go up and my inches go down.
- I struggle with push-ups. Massively.
- I hate lunges, and in particular having to hang out in lunge position with my knee hovering off the ground. I can't get that low or my knees hate me.
But: I am looking for the positive in all this. Running will be fun again, I can enjoy small amounts of dessert and cheese, weight is just a number, and I'm gaining muscle so all of this will be easier soon.
I love this, I am finding the same things difficult right now with my fitness journey. ESPECIALLY staying away from baked goods. We have had so many birthdays in the past month, which means LOTS of cake and junk food. My problem is finding the self control to just walk away from the junk.
