Today is Day 59 of PIYO...sort of. Technically I missed a solid week of workouts because my mind and body took a break after the Labor Day weekend at the start of this month. I indulged myself in some rest and relaxation...and food...that made it hard to get back on track after the long weekend away from my normal routine. Then I got a bit of a sore throat/cold situation happen so I slacked on my regular workout routine.
I am committing to another week of PIYO to take me into the first full week of October. I'll finish just in time to celebrate the start of hockey season in our house (which means 1st Game Pizza) and our 5 year anniversary.
The photo above was from my workout yesterday, on Day 58. I'm going to take this to a solid 70 days. I always feel better when I complete a workout and I know I'll feel accomplished when I complete the ones I missed earlier this month.
The progress I've been making in my strength and flexibility keep me going. Above is the Beast Pose where you're on all fours but you push off your knees by about an inch so you're hovering over the ground. This may look easy but Holy Core! Those muscles engage like WHOA!
Another pose I've improved on? Warrior 3! This one had me falling all OVER the place at the start of the PIYO program. Now I can hold this pose and feel much more stable in it. Another accomplishment and achievement that is not measured by the scale!
Winning!
