Today in spinning class Rhonda introduced her Wall interval. A timed combination of a sprint, seated climb, standing run, hard climb and jumps. As the puddle around my bike kept getting deeper and my mental toughness waned, I actually felt my legs kicking in and feeling stronger. I'm anxious to go for a ride on my bike to see if I feel a difference.
Disturbing revelation in Yoga class: The mirrors in the gym intentionally make you look unflattering so you spend more time there. Honest to goodness. I felt like a I was in one of those cheesy fun houses you see in movies. You know, the ones with scary clowns that are more creepy than funny.
Maybe some truth in those mirrors??? Yikes, I hope not. Regardless, back to the weight lifting routine and a jog tomorrow morning:)
Cheesy motivational quote of the day: "Your biggest challenge isn’t someone else. It’s the ache in your lungs. The burning in your legs. And that voice in your head that yells "CAN’T," but you don’t listen. You just push harder. And then you hear that voice whisper, "can" and you discover that the person you thought you were is no match for the person you really are."

Don't sweat the fact mirrors are distorted in the gym. Their probably distorted due to the fact; most muscle heads tend to suffer from body dysmorphia. The mirrors play into their illness. They all want to look bigger.
