Thursday - AWESOME vinyasa/hatha yoga class!
Friday - nothing

I'm SO glad that I made it to yoga on Thursday, because it was amazing! There were only two of us there, and we're the ones who really like being challenged. So Allison created a totally different class than planned, on the fly, and it was incredible! We did a series of real (i.e. hard!) sun salutations, working on details like how to roll over our toes through the movement. We practiced crow, and dancer, and plow and shoulder stands and finished up with a full wheel pose. It was super hard and so much fun and I absolutely loved it. And the best part is that Allison told us afterward that she's been thinking about changing her Tuesday class to be more like what we had just done, because it is really what she prefers to be teaching and she wants to keep the younger crowd that has started to check out the studio. Yay!

Saturday: spent about 45 minutes digging giant holes in the sand at the beach

-Jess

*okay, this was from the library, because I'm continuing to check things out that look low-impact (on account of my twisted ankle) and it turns out this is a video re-recorded onto DVD, and the leotards in it are AWESOME. :D

Week 48 for Jess

Sunday: nothing
Monday: nothing
Tuesday: Personal Training with Jackie (40 min. circuit)
Wednesday: 30 Day Shred, Level 1
Thursday: nothing (my ankle was a bit sore from the jumping yesterday, and I didn't want to push it and risk re-injuring it.)
Friday: Xtreme Timesaver Training
Saturday: I did this step routine. Actually, I did the first 11 minutes, then went back to the beginning and did the whole thing. Great option for a good cardio routine without high impact moves.

Sunday - nothing
Monday - nothing
Tuesday - nothing
Wednesday - nothing
Thursday - nothing
Friday - nothing

I'm giving up some of my class time in the next few weeks so that Gabe can go out on Tuesday evenings. Next Tuesday is a dinner with some of his previous co-workers, and the following week is an Angels game with his new co-workers. And the Saturday after that he'll be on a church retreat, so no class then either.

All that to say that my class time is going to be seriously sparse for the rest of the month. Perhaps I'll get motivated to pull out some workout dvds? I got Bob Harper's Yoga for the Warrior from the library but the cover is so hardcore I'm pretty sure I won't like it! ;)
