Jan 2nd- Time to Live, Love and Laugh

Well, the NEW YEAR is hear and I’m UBER excited about all the possibilites.  I’ve been thinking about some resoulutions and some of my GOALS.  I am not much of a creature of habit so I don’t typically think about resolving to change my habits or …I think more about how I’d like to attain certain goals :) My resoulutions tend to be more like GOALS than resoutions.

I have a ton of fitness goals for the year, much of which involve KEEPING the fitness level that I have now.  The SSS conetest really catapulted me back to a fitness level where I can confidently say I AM IN SHAPE!!  I love it, but in order to stay there I have to keep working out about 6 days a week …so that’s a goal of mine.  Another fitness goal is to keep on learning and doing my MMA training.  I love it!! it’s been a great additon and SPARK to my fitness~ I am SUPER excited about it!!  The noon class at TCB on Tues and Thursdays has fit perfectly into my life and I plan to keep going!!

Most of my other goals are NOT fitness based…they are business based, relationship based and spiritaully based.  I want to attain the next level in every area of my life and I KNOW It’s possible through hard work and discipline. 2009 taught me a ton about these areas and about how disappointments and STRESS can make life really suck.  I learned that much of the STRESS I was dealing with was self impossed and UNNECESSARY!!  I believe that over the past few months I’ve learned to LET GO!  and I plan to continue on with that mindset in 2010 and beyond~ it’s time to LIVE, LOVE AND LAUGH!!

My plan for the weekend is to get in a couple workouts- I’ve missed the past 2 days…and also watch some football (VIKINGS), hang with my DH and kids, make some lists, journal a bit and get ready to ROCK the upcoming year and week ahead!! 

Happy happy new decade!! I’ll be Kicking tail again in 2010!!

Be Relentless! Join the 4 week mini challenge for APRIL

www.BuffMother.com

Dear BuffMothers-

I would love for all of you ladies to join me in my 4 week- RELENTLESS Challenge!

I declare the next 4 weeks RELENTLESS!!!
Will you join me in that mindset until May 4th? (and beyond)
April had no “holidays” or built in “excuses” that could cause us to stray…so let’s rock it!!!
The challenge starts Monday 4-7!
(includes the weeks of 4-7, 4-14, 4-21, 4-28)

Let’ all take before and after photos, measurements and track our progress through these next 4 weeks!!

It will be a great way to keep us focused through the middle of the BBB contest

I’ll post my pictures and stats tomorrow afternoon….

What RELENTLESS means to me:
*Saying no to the temptation of straying from my diet-no dairy, no alcohol, no sweets, lots of protein, lots of veggies, taking my supplements
*Working out with an intensity that no one in the gym can match
*Being focused on my form and posture at all time
*Stepping up my cardio/intervals a notch
*Working out for a total of 1-2 hours six days a week, using every minute productively
*Focusing extra hard on my abs
*Practicing my posing
*logging my progress

This will be fun! if I don’t die.

Your RELENTLESS,
Michelle
p.s. at the end myself and some leaders here will the 6 most visibly relentless members of the RR and put them in a poll for you to vote for the winner!!!  The winner will get a fun SURPRISE PRIZE!!
