Tuesday – Teach Turbo Kickboxing
Wednesday – Rest Day
Tuesday nights I teach Turbo Kickboxing. I set up my Hybrid so that a longer Turbo Fire workout would fall on Tuesdays (as well as giving me Sundays off), so my class falls nicely into my schedule. Turbo, truly, is my “soul-mate” workout. It’s the workout I crave. I’ve done other Beachbody programs, and while I truly love them ALL, Turbo is in my blood. I always seem to come back to this workout. This workout never seems like “work” to me…it’s always a party!
Wednesday – well, my husband surprised me with tickets to go see the Ducks hockey game in Anaheim. The seats were sa-weet! 2 rows from the glass! It was awesome. Because of the game, I wasn’t able to get my workout in. No worries. My schedule is “flexible” so I’ll just move all my workouts up a day and won’t take a Rest Day on Sunday.
There’s a lesson to be learned here: go with the flow. You’ve committed yourself to 90 days of clean eating and daily workouts, carefully following the program as it’s laid out for you. But, as any of the Celebrity Trainers will tell you, you’ve got to make it work for YOU; otherwise you’ll be fighting an uphill battle. It’s ok to have a cheat meal, or maybe even a cheat day. And it’s certainly ok to take a Rest Day (I’m talking to you Kari!). The problem lies when it becomes a daily thing. It’s so easy to fall off track, but harder to get back on the longer you’ve been off. This goes for fitness and nutrition. It’s a slippery slope.
Moral of the story…it’s ok to go with the flow, but don’t stay off the boat for too long. ;)
