Once Upon a TIme.....

So Jillian is always hammering home the 'Why' in this series.  "If you have a why you can tolerate any how" is the quote she uses.  I LOVE reading and watching other people explain their why, however I don't have a concrete reason when I think about it.  I have a feeling that I am striving for.  The feeling I got when I was the most fit in my life--- I want to feel that again.  This was several years ago when I hiked Mount Whitney in Lone Pine, California.  This was absolutely the most breathtaking, life changing experience I ever had.  I trained for months and was the fittest and happiest I have ever been in my life.

I want to feel as fit, healthy and proud as I felt this day hiking up that Mountain.  It was as if ' If I can do this, I can do anything'. 

So workout 5 again today.  MUCH better than the first time through.  I am so happy that the one legged squats were so much easier.  I just looked away from the tv- focused, breathed and balanced and it came.  I may not have been as fast as the group, but I got down and I got up.  The only time I lost balance was when she says 'One More'- yay.   I was surprised that the move I struggled with the most was the cable chest flies.  The first time through- smooth sailing and good form.  The second time through- OWW, my arm wanted to bend. 

Good Night all!
