Pilates

Workout: 30 minutes of pilates

You know, if you just watch a Pilates workout, it doesn't seem like it's really a work out. The instructor's voice is so calm and she isn't profusely sweating. But lemme tell you, it's GREAT. My muscles are SHAKING. It's famous for creating long, lean, and fit bodies. It's also been found to promote a high self-esteem and a heightened lifestyle consciousness. <--- Bonus?! This particuliar workout is what's up. I do a cardio workout (running on hills) one day, and strength training (either bodyrock or pilates) the next. Sundays are my rest day. I'm feeling much better about myself than I did 2 weeks ago, even if the scale isn't saying so. As a reminder to myself, the scale should never be our ultimate determining factor of how we feel.

Oh, and FYI- I reached 300 miles of running since January 2nd of this year. Considering next month kicks off my 2nd round of half marathon training, I should get to 600 easily by the end of the year. Game on!
