Its amazing what you can do when pushed!!!!

OMG my trainer is mean but awesome at the same time..... he decided that I wasn't training hard enough and that I drank way too much red wine on Saturday night, so today's session after the usual warm up, a few squat rows, squats, lunges etc.... that I could do 500 kettlebell swings using a 16 kilo kettlebell... I guess I should be greatful that it was with the 20 or 24 kilo kettlebell... After the first 100 of them, I so didn't think I was going to make it as my forearms were burning but they settled down and I did it....

I have have triathlon swim training at lunchtime which is going to be interesting is all I'm saying...

This is Monday's (yesterday's) post that I forgot to publish.

I've got lots of christmas functions with week so I hate to think of what my other 2 PT sessions are going to be like, let alone next Monday's after I've survived this week.... I did have to pull out the jfdi card a few times this morning but I did it.... I'm so excited!!!!!

I'm feeling pretty tired right now so the rest of the day will be interesting including the 12 days to christmas challenge that I'm starting today...

12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS FITNESS CHALLENGE!

These are to be done as fast as possible, with perfect form (of course)

OMG how long has it been....

I so can't believe its been nearly 18 months since I've posted here....

So much has happened in my life, I've changed jobs within the Finance industry, I've lost 50 kilos and got to my goal weight, Brad and I split up for good, I have started training to be a personal trainer and I'm now competing in triathlons...

Its all pretty unreal right now and unbelieveable.... Life is just so different...
