Okay, to be honest when livejournal was down some time earlier I did freak out a bit. I thought like oh, no! Now all my stuff and sweet memories are gone and I didn't even do anything about them like back up or something but now that it's here I'm glad.
So, got back to workout after I was off for like nearly a week. The reason?!
It's the workout itself! Allow me to explain.
Around last week I did Cassey's latest challenges. Usually she does it to songs but this time it was off the wall. She had this crazy challenge of 1000 squat. At first it was a short version just to show she made it but then there were many many request from the POP starts to upload the full length so they can do it with her. Ever since she uploaded that one up I got a burning interest in doing it. Then when I had the chance I went full crazy just like her sweet personality.
She was telling what squats we'll be doing, they all seemed fine except for the No. 4 squat and the roll up. The last one is a killer, I don't think I'll do it even if it's on its own but since it's with Cassey it's worth to give a shot. Anyhow, when I first started with the regular squat it was easy but once we finished the first 100 and moved to the next which was the kick and squat my legs got heavy already. I figured cause I didn't do any stretch before but still not that much, I continued and the next one, when we were moving further and further and the legs sense were almost gone, had to pause many times since it was the first time, drank too much water, sweat like I'm under a shower and my head turned into a tomato.
It was fun challenging myself and my legs where gone the next day. A hard sore where in the quads, had a really difficult time in walking, sitting and going to the bathroom but it was the sore of joy. Honestly, it makes me feel really satisfying and pleased with myself. Took a week for it to go away and didn't do any workout in that time. Even though this happened last week I loved posting it here as a memory. Also, to mention the story that happened that time and inspired me to make (Melody) my last doll - yeah! Just came up with the name.
Cassey did the challenge as a way to break her fear and that inspired me to go on with my doll project. I needed that in the right time, in the work out with her and in my life too. And by the way, I did until 700, so it wasn't back either. Sometimes the things you need comes from places you don't expect. Mean like she's a Pilate instructor and she's the one who inspired me with craft, odd I know. All I'm saying just don't stop where you are, if you made a mistake try again and always know that there's another chance if you don't take it then no one will and yes! You are stronger, cleverer and way creative than you think you are. Love yourself.
