Day 50 - Did I say once that I liked floor jumps?

OK, I still do, but as I just said in a comment to Sara's post - HOLY SHIT, THE LEGS!

Great workout this morning. Quite amazing that 3 x 5 jumps are SO much harder than 2 x 8. Especially yesterday. There were a couple of times in the last set when the rope came over my head and I MEANT to jump but it was like my feet were cemented to the driveway. They didn't budge. I laughed (what else can I do?).

This was the first week I was happy to see my diet not change. Despite all my moaning a couple of weeks ago about "SO MUCH FOOD" I am famished for all my meals and snacks and I realize I'm not gaining a pound (or losing a pound for that matter, which is good). My body is using every bit of that food I suppose.

And, not to go on about my period again, but a very large improvement in PMS symptoms and cramps this month. Probably the best I've felt in... years and years? A couple of decades? I do think this is related to 50 days of clean living and exercise.

Happy Wednesday all. 40 more days. We're climbing out of that valley!

  2. That foot-floor thing, the weirdest thing is your brain saying, "But I told them to jump. I really did." Its companion piece is later on, when you realize you just jumped for 18 minutes and didn't even notice. You're looking fantastic!

  3. Good stuff! Strong legs are the foundation of everything you'll do in this project.
