BOSU BALL



BOSU! I have been taking this class twice a week and I love it!

I haven't seen such amazing results before than with this little half ball. My core is so much stronger! I don't think i'm losing any inches or weight, but I know I'm getting stronger! I use to be so wobbly and shake when I first started the class and be SO SORE for a few days, but now I am stable, steady and feel strong during the class! I highly recommend it!

You are working twice as hard with BOSU, because you have to balance AND work at the same time! You are using so many more muscles and burn more calories because of it. These are just a few of my fav's on the ball, but the possiblities are endless with it! My instructor is always doing new things with it. It doesn't get boring, for sure!

I've decided to go after my fitness certification for sure. So I'm really looking forward to learning about the body, nutrition and fitness. I am looking forward to helping others achieve their goals and someday, down the road.....help with body image too....but I have to heal myself first.

Update

Myself: Not online at all these days. It's been nice to not have the distraction of the net during the day. I get alot more done and have more focus on what I'm doing. I seem to be wrestling with my health. It's been about 3 months now that I've been fighting lightheadedness and tiredness. It comes and goes, today being a bad day for that. I am going to try to take iron supplements and see if that helps. I'm considering taking a fitness certification course in Sept. Kill two birds with one stone....workout AND get paid for it!

House: Reno's are still on the go. Kitchen being the biggest of them all, but we're replacing all the doors and trim on the upper floor. Can't wait for it to be done! One more week.

Kids: Adjusting to all the commotion in the house with paint trays, drop cloths, and ladders everywhere. Isaiah moved into her own room last weekend. So now the babies are together (Loads of fun :P) Isaiah is enjoying her own room, i think it makes her feel that much more grown up.

Marriage: Thanks to God and all His miracles, Joe and I are still enjoying our fresh start that He gave us last fall. We enjoy eachother so much now. It's such a blessing to be best friends again and to appreciate why we fell in love in the first place. We are considering a trip in the near future for just the two of us. We never did get to go on a honeymoon and with popping out 5 kids in 10 years, and all the trials we've faced in that time (Caleb's disablity and death being a big one) we deserve it. we need it.....and we're looking forward to it!

that's all I can think of in my tired state right now.
