It is not at all like cake walk.
I am going to admit I have barely been getting through the boot camp classes. I am so exhausted, and no. I never made it on my 8 mile run. I literally tried and only got 3 miles in and that was more walking and whining to my husband about how I just wanted to lay in the grass and sleep. * it was 30 degrees and I was still ready to lay down to die *. Cake walk, crab walk, Eh- I am barely movin’.
But today is my Mom’s birthday! Yay
Aww, I just love her. I have a surprise I will be posting about soon. Yes, it involved my Mom 😀
So, I have not been documenting my workouts for a few reasons.
- I have no idea what we did by the time I get home.
- Class is a blur and I just keep trying to do everything without passing out of exhaustion.
- My brain is foggy and I am having trouble concentrating on ANYTHING. Well, besides sleep. That is all I want to do.
Today was arm day, and we did a lot, but my inability to do a crab walk was RIDICULOUS. I literally would just get into the position, then fail. I also was REALLY smelly today. Which sounds funny because most people get sweaty and smelly when they work out right? Well not me. I NEVER smell. I am not saying this to be weird or brag. I just NEVER stink, and I would have my husband quote it. We can do the same things and I just never get an odor. NOW. This not mean I do not sweat like crazy. I am pretty sure I will out sweat anyone if put to the test. It is my face and chest that are always DRENCHED. So of course this means I got really unfocused, and just crawled inspecting this new added bonus to my sweat (and the fact I could not do crab walks). By this point my arms were shaking anyways from all the 100 million reps of crazy arm work. Yes, a 100 million. I have showered and I still feel smelly. It was really that bad..
It was pouring rain today, so it was all inside and I have no pictures. I do however have a few from last week 
So I am in the front of the line- I call them suicide runs, but I am pretty sure they are called something else. I have no idea. Obviously we were running really fast there…
Ah Same day, abs after brutal squats, lunges, frog jumps, and more lovely leg workouts.I am still in all gray ^ The one who kinda looks like she is birthing, instead of situp pattycake with my partner..
We look happy. I am in the lime color ( my favorite shirt in Disney because I always got picked for the show things in that shirt!)
I was not happy. Sore. Crabby. Naturally it means – eat things you are not supposed to have.
I am currently doing some research on meal planning instead of running in this rain. I will update more soon.
Eh…be crappy and stinky! This too shall pass 🙂

Thanks! Hey, I have been commenting on your blog from my phone a lot, and I realized about only a fraction are actually showing up! I must be failing the spam bot.. 🙁
Oh no!!!!!!
Happy birthday Mom!! I can hardly wait to read about the surprise! It sounds like Bootcamp is doing exactly what you want it too, hopefully it’s not too difficult and you can conquer it and yourself! Good luck with meal planning 🙂
Thanks Emily! Bootcamp is showing me I am capable of a lot more than I thought I was, while also challenging me every day. Any tips on meal planning?? I am feeling LOST still.
I hit those walls with working out too, where it just puts me into a foul mood. But, the next day or whenever when my jeans zip easier, it suddenly all seems worth. At least you are getting out there and doing something – you are totally motivating me to do the same and I’m slowly but surely getting back into my groove.
I’ve thought about doing boot camp but worry I won’t be able to keep up – HA! Maybe I’ll give it another look. 🙂
Aww thank you! Honestly other blogs are what help me workout and inspire me to try. I was TERRIFIED after I saw pictures of my bc class I signed up for with marathon running women ( no joke they are in my class) and I wouldn’t be able to do anything. I think if you find a great instructor they will help you no matter where you are at 😉 refardless the type of class! I love it. I am sad it is ending in two weeks!! Hopefully you give it a try!!
Happy bday to your mom! I do kind of like the idea of getting up and getting it done and not having to “think” and just “do”. I bet you are kinda in a fog though. I think I would be too! Good job sticking it out!
Yeah me too, I just struggle with that when I am on my own and not in a class..
