Team Beachbody ¡preestreno!Español Guest

I recently went back to the doctor and my bone is healing nicely. I managed to do 40 push-ups on my knees and 25 regular ones. I asked him if I could try pull-ups again and he has finally given me the green light! YAY... I'm a little worried about how much strength I've lost and how few I'll actually be able to do. I'm going to "do my best and forget the rest" I’ll keep you posted on how many I can do with and without the chair. Before the accident I was doing 8 pull-ups without the chair and about 40-50 with it. Not too bad for an old mom as my kids say.

I haven't exactly been sitting around doing nothing all this time... my lifestyle won't allow it. I still have to feed, groom, water and work my horses and clean my house. In lieu of lifting weights, I've been lifting 50 lb bags of feed and bales of hay. I've loaded and unloaded about 300 bales of hay in the last three weekends. Next weekend I help my daughter move....again. I try very hard to get my regular workouts in, but lately I have had very little time. I do what I can when I can and try not to beat myself up too much about it. My weight is hanging in around 108, so I'm not putting on weight, but I feel my muscles and my cardio are not where I would like them to be. It's time for me to start digging deep and pushing play more often.

I know I am not the only one that struggles with time and commitment - we all do on some level. The best part of being part of Team Beachbody is that I know there are people out there that are with me in my journey, they face the same struggles and yet we keep trying to reach our goals - to SUCCEED.  Reach out to me  - let's motivate each other; let's be accountable. I'm here for you and I know I can count on you too.

Have a great weekend and I'll see you in WOWY!
