Update for all 3 of my followers...
I’m less than four weeks away from my first bikini physique competition.  Four weeks.  The point at which I am so anxious that I struggle to understand why I signed up for this in the first place.  Why didn’t I stick to running another 5k?  I remind myself of the reason:  simply, I wanted to look like a bikini competitor.  What better way is there than to train for an...

My love!
My brother:  “Kahlil, do you want to talk to Tita Paola?” My nephew:  “No.” My brother:  “How come you don’t want to talk to Tita Paola?” My nephew:  “Because I want to go see Tita Paola!” Ahh, my happy heart!

Favorite definition of Meditation:
“Meditation is to be aware of every thought and of every feeling, never to say it is right or wrong but just to watch it and move with it. In that watching you begin to understand the whole movement of thought and feeling. And out of this awareness comes silence. Silence put together by thought is stagnation, is dead, but the silence that comes when thought has understood its own beginning,...

SPX
My workout program consists of strength training, running, H.I.I.T. (High Intensity Interval Training), TRX, and SPX (Pilates Plus).  Let’s not forget rest days.  Very important.  TRX is fantastic.  More on that later. Right now, I feel I have to shine a light on SPX.  I’m only at the beginning of my second week of consistent SPX training, but it is already doing wonders on my body. ...

Aspiring Vegan Athlete
One week ago today, I vented about how mad I was at myself for being such a slacker.  After wallowing in self pity for a couple of hours, I decided to shut out the mind chatter, create a shopping list, and a brand new workout plan.   I have had a great week!  I began thinking of myself as an aspiring athlete, rather than just a chick trying to get a little cardio in before beach season.  You...

Discipline
“Discipline means to learn, not to conform, not to suppress, not to imitate the pattern of what accepted authority considers noble.” -J. Krishnamurti That’s true.  The root meaning of “discipline” is “to learn.” I lost that definition somewhere along the way.  I am discovering a passion for life, for health, among other things.  I am not competing.  I am...

Just Venting
I’m upset with myself right now.  Here’s my routine, or rather, my usual thought process:  “I wanna be super healthy and look strong and sexy! … I should sign up for an event so I can train myself to make the changes happen … Yay, I signed up for a fitness event! … Yay, I’m training hard! … ooh, I’m hungry.  Let’s eat! … Oh, I ate...
