It's not an impressive excursion by any means really. I don't have any idea the distance of it. BUT that will come with time.
I went Sat. morning and that evening I also did a pilates video. It's a combination of reg. pilates mat exercises and a session of cardio pilates. Not too bad. There are things on there that I can NOT do.. some of the mat exercises. The cardio wasn't a problem at all but the mat excercises...how does she do that? I look at that woman with complete awe. I tell myself "Aaaahhhh, she's young. She's probably in her early 20s or something..." I doubt she is though. Maybe one day I'll be able to lay flat on my back with my arms stretched overhead and be able to "roll my body up one vertebrae at a time into a sitting position". (if you can do this, don't share ... unless you're younger than 25) ;0) With a little swing in my arms and sort of a throwing myself up and forward, I can do it without using my hands BUT it isn't pretty. It is NOT one vertebrae at a time. When Bianca came over last night (she gave me the video), she can do it. BUT heck, she's 22. :0)
It's a goal.
I think.
We'll see.
If not, I always have the age excuse.
(just go with it friends, let me have an excuse)
For now...thank you to my Sista, a friend K, my BW group, and Bianca...they have all motivated me to get off my bum and go.
I pray it lasts. That my stubbornness continues to win the battle.
:0)
