Sorry to all my daily readers. Yesterday was a full day and no time to get on the computer to blog.

But Yesterday's class was again, amazing. The Intensity Level was about 9.3. This week, I feel like Rob is really pushing us to a new level of personal best and I LOVE IT!!!!!

After another restless night, I got up, and got ready with a determined attitude and a willing spirit.

When I got downtown, Stephanie did a light warm up with us, we did a small drill to get our blood pumping and then we were given a series of exercises to complete.

We were given directions to do 100 reps of each task. I found myself wondering if I'd be able do it and doubting myself before I even began. I almost caught myself thinking "I can't..." But I resolved to do it and I was determined to finish whether I did it in the allowed time of had to stay after to complete the tasks.

I started out with what I thought would be the hard stuff for my body. I broke down each task into 25 reps each. We did undulation (not sure it that's the right term) which is basically using a heavy rope to drum on the ground, TRX rows (which I could not do 25 of at a time without a rest break), dips, crunches, reverse crunches, curls, push ups, military presses (OMGosh, 100 reps of this one was really hard!!!). I think that's all of them but I may have forgotten one? I did have to make some adjustments throughout class because my arms were burning and feeling fatigued at many points during the circuit. The sweat poured profusely today (Gross!). And once again, in the distance, I swear I could hear Beyonce's Survivor and the Rocky Theme Song. There were a few times that I had to stop for a moment but I was able to keep a strong attitude, a steady pace and a determination to finish.

And I did, with a few minutes to spare!

I AM STRONG!!!

I DID A GOOD JOB TODAY!!!

AND I FINISHED WHAT I STARTED!!!

I'm ready to face this last day of a very tough week and I'm thankful that this week, I've been able to use Boot Camp as a stress and frustration outlet. I love the fact that I still get excited about what's to come daily and continue to crave the self-motivation and accomplishments that I continue to achieve daily.

Intensity Level Today : 10!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wooohooo!
