Not the face

[clevermanka]

This looks so awesome.

I especially love the Krav Maga guy at 0:23 doing the "this is what it feels like to be hit in the face--get over it" exercise (I assume that's what he's doing). The whole thing looks like an amazing experience.

I walked up the hill this morning with no hip pain (yay!!!), so I am confident about getting back on track with exercising. Taking femfataleatron's advice on athleticism, and admitting it's something I've never had before, I'm going to optimistically but realistically evaluate my ability to do these movements to build my own program. I'll use Sonnon's four-day schedule, but with a mixture of the appropriate-for-me Lite and Pre-Recruit movements.

Slept really crappy (again) last night. This is not a good trend. I had more stress dreams, but I can't remember them now. More stuff with people chasing me, I think.

I forgot to prep a lunch last night, so all I have to eat today are the spaghetti squash croquettes I had leftover from yesterday's breakfast. I'm getting more and more space-cadet-ish. I must remember to pay attention to everything I'm doing right now. No autopilot until I get my hormones under control.

Attention, attention!

I would like a steak now, please.

That looks like an awesome weekend workshop!

Want I should bring some food up there? I plan to go to the office in the next hour or two, on account of needing to finish my annual evaluation thingy.

There is no food to bring, alas. Diced chicken breast (marinaded or no) alone doesn't sound all that appealing. I suppose it's better than nothing at all, though.

Hm.

Maybe bring me up one of the smallest glass food containers of the curry chicken?

Thank you!

Also, icon FTW.

Re: sleep and other issues, perhaps you just need a hyperbaric chamber (http://blogs.babble.com/strollerderby/2011/01/23/hyperbaric-chamber-saves-the-lives-of-two-children/).

Har har.

I whimper at the wall-walkdowns.
but that woman at 2:29.. wow, she exudes energy and strength.

Everyone there looks like they're having a really intense, but good, time. I love that people brought their kids.

[redheadfae.livejournal.com]

It almost makes me want to join a gym.. if there was one like that.

[saffronhare.livejournal.com]

That was really awesome. Watching the kids almost made me tear up a bit! Krav Maga is what I originally studied, so pretty cool to see it in there. :)

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Oh, cool! When/where did you study?

Man, last night must have been a night for bad sleep. I felt like every time I fell asleep something woke me back up instantly, when in fact I'd been asleep for several hours. Not fun.

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Boo, hiss.

[nottygypsy.livejournal.com]

I think my bad sleep = awesome day out but too much COFFEE! I drank it ALL DAY, and on the way home I thought, oh HELL. Of course I had trouble getting to sleep, and now to bed.

Love you.

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think you might've drank most of the three pots of coffee I made. I have to go buy more coffee tonight to get me through the week! =D

[adammaker.livejournal.com]

Looks wonderfully fun.

And I'm glad to hear you are feeling better!

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Well, kind of. At least my hips and hamstrings don't hurt!

I went all out for the final day of my TFW cycle.
Now, I'm walking funny around the kitchen.
