I am entering this program with huge trepidation. I've run most of my life, and last year developed a nagging hip injury which kept me out of a half marathon I really wanted to do. I am the mother of two sons and have packed on the perimenopausal pounds these past few years. I want to get them off because my back is bothering me as is the spare tire around my abdomen. When I don't run, I am incredibly irritable and if I cannot run, or need to decrease running, than I decided I might as well try this. Frankly, my muscle tone resembles that of Jabba the Hut and if I have to publish my before shots on this website, I debate whether I should just quit now. Talk about accountability (or public humiliation) I saw the infomercial and felt that while it had great entertaiment value, there was no way I could ever do the routines. My girlfriend's husband, a Team Beachbody coach and doc, is also a runner and felt it would be helpful. Honestly, I dread this process as much as I look forward to it. However, I believe in wholistic health, nutrition and fitness so as an aspiring homeopath with one semester of school left, I need to walk this walk. And yet I procrastinate...
I hung up the pull up bar last week and so far it's been great as a pre-stop to the closet for the ironing. I have not done a pull up since the Physical Fitness test back in Middle School. Well, let the games begin....
Those who quit never win and those who win never quit. I hope I can suck it up for 90 days.
