clif bar to the rescue!
i’ve been up and moving all afternoon non stop. helping out my mom, leg exercises, just a little inversion/arm balance practice (shoulders and wrists are sore today), 2 minute plank.. feels good. i just can’t stop handstand-ing… it’s dangerously fun. so i skipped the full out challenging yoga session since i did do 50 minutes this morning, and i could tell my body was saying “that’s enough.” i’m glad i could listen to myself. i don’t even know what took all afternoon, but it feels good to sit down. i’m still looking forward to a relaxing yoga-sesh tonight though! i’ll focus on releasing the tension and stretching out the soreness in my muscles from all the hard work i’ve been doing.
refueling myself with a 8oz glass of green machine naked and a peanut butter clif bar is just what i need. carbs are definitely not the enemy, you just have to be mindful where your carb sources are coming from!
Just chillen’ :) I’m more excited that I can finally do this then I should be.

Got three minutes? Challenge yourself to a three minute plank!
I chose the forearm version. You don’t have to watch the whole video of me planking for three minutes, but I did it! I kept having to put movement into it at the end to keep me going. Those last 30 seconds were tough. So try it out too : )
to all my followers!
