One Thousand Miles

Confucius said, "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." I decided to stop making excuses. I stopped saying "I can't". I can and I did. In 2011, I have now walked more than one thousand miles. In an effort to help others as well as myself, I donated a thousand dollars to "Homes For Our Troops". But, I'm not done. I'm still walking. Won't you join me on my journey? Together, we can eat healthier, exercise more, and maybe give just a bit of ourselves to those less fortunate.

Its Friday. Let's Add A New Exercise

Its going to be a busy day. My husband and I are headed to a ceremony in town. A dear friend is getting promoted. I asked him if I had time to work out. I did. So, I headed downstairs. I don't really have time for a super long blog, but I wanted you to know, I added a new exercise. You will love this one. Today I added the butt lift. Give it a try. Its easy, it does wonders for your rear view, and it requires no special equipment.
First, you lay flat on your back on a mat with your knees bent. Place your arms down by your sides. Raise your pelvis up toward the ceiling to a point where your body will be at a 45 degree angle. When raised, be sure to really flex your butt for a one-count. Hold it. Now return to the start position and repeat. Today, I did 50 repetitions.
