    ALRIGHT !!!!!
    It’s GO TIME Ladies (and husbands )

    I just read through all of your posts since I’ve been gone and I’m super happy to see you all back here going strong ! It seems like we all sort of had our own type of month of March and that this April Project is ON !
    I love having a plan. It just works. Doesn’t it ? And adapting that said plan when life throws things at us is what makes us a success in the long term and in this new friggen awesome lifestyle that we are living.
    Right ?

    Ok so vacation was pretty fantastic, like really, like yeah.
    I’m totally repeating next year.
    Yes. That’s happening.

    But NOW is Body Beast Lean time !
    I’m pumped.
    Be ready lol
    • Monday - Build Chest and Tris + 30 mins Netflix Treadmill
    • Tuesday - Build Legs
    • Wednesday after work - Build Back and Bis
    • Thursday after work - Beast Cardio + Abs
    • Friday after work - Build shoulders
    • Saturday after work - Build Chest and Tris
    • Sunday after work - Rest

    We’ve got 3 great months of this. I’ve only done 2.5 weeks of the calendar as a trial as you know so after that, we’ll all be experiencing it together for the first time Day by Day, which is so very cool.

    One last thing. And I know Bianca will back me up on this.
    I STRONGLY recommend taking before pics. I know I know.... I get it.
    Trust me.
    You don’t need to show them to ANYONE. It’s for you... to see.... at some point... down the road.... where we are now April 2018. They are a POWERFUL UNDENIALBE TOOL that you WILL want to see again, with a different set of eyes, later down the road.

    I did it.
    So did B.
    Tough. No joke. Ohhhh yes. But damn. So empowering.

    I love you guys and I’m really super happy to have you all here and I truly feel blessed to have you as my fit family.

    Love
    Seriously tanned K
    xoxo

    Yay @Jamie6636 !
    I’m so glad you love B.B. and so does your husband. We are in the ring, with the boys, doing big girl things right ?!
    Power rocks.
    This thing is happening.

    Before pics ! Awesome !
    Now put them away from your eyes and don’t look at them again until it’s time.

    Let’s do the work

    HFM Training Week 9

    Sunday - 4 km steady run
    Monday - rest
    Tuesday - 6 km steady run

    Wednesday - 12 km long run
    Thursday - 4 km hill training, 5x hill of doom
    Friday - 4 km tempo run
    Saturday - rest

    Some weeks, it feels so great, and others are a struggle. So this week is definitely a struggle. Am fighting a stomach bug. My husband and older son have it. Could not run yesterday, but managed a 6 km today. Some big, bad wind storm is coming to Toronto tonight, but will try for my longer run later tomorrow when it is over. I just want to crawl into bed but have several hours of parenting to go!

    This quote from Coach Steve is very fitting:
    There comes a point in every race, when you’re near the end and you’re tired and you’re sore, when you face a serious decision. You can let it beat you. You can wish it were over and pray for the finish line to finally bring this misery to an end. Or, you can attack – you can reach down deep inside and even though you’re tired, and even though you’re sore, and even though it hurts, somewhere in your gut you find another gear, somehow you find a little bit of strength and you press on, and push triumphantly to the finish. - Clara Hughes

    Lisa !
    You, Coach Steve, and Clara are totally right.
    It's a choice. Always is a choice.
    Sometimes it takes hitting the wall to find out that there is still lots that can be done beyond the wall. I know my return to Leg Day sure tested that for me.

    Not going to lie, hill of doom was super hard today. I am listening to the audiobook version of Make Your Bed: Little Things That You Can Do To Change Your Life and Maybe the World by retired Admiral William McRaven. He describes life lessons learned from his esteemed military career and goes into detail about his Navy Seal training, which was beyond intense. He has a chapter on perseverance and not quitting, so as I was struggling, I kept hearing him say “DON’T QUIT!!!!”

    I wanted to introduce all of you to my frenemy, the hill of doom. It doesn’t look so bad in this photo, but don’t be fooled!!

    Monday- chest and tris
    Tues-legs
    Wed-back and bis
    Today-cardio
    just didn’t have it in me to do abs plus my son is sick and asked me every other minute if I was done.

    Today’s cardio was killer!! I started those many variations of squats strong and deep and by the end had my legs in more of a diamond shape on those sumos. OMG!

    I am also sore and after today am a little scared of tomorrow’s workout. At least it’s my last for the week. I will be feeling proud of myself after my morning workout when I have lived through my first week of body beast.

    It is so awesome to be doing it together!

    I'm doing this! and posting my before and afters.

    Oh and I spelt Beast with my feet and then backwards! You better believe it.
