Day 18 - Resistance 2

It's been awhile since I posted here. I think it was due to starting that new program 22 Minute Hard Corps and I had been in this nice niche of writing about my other Hammer & Chisel. But for whatever reason I take responsibility for not being here in my blog and plan to get back into today.
I loved the fact that I was able to do two sessions of this workout on the cruise ship last week with Tony Horton himself live, which was a special treat! We also met him coming out of an elevator on the upper deck (sorry,  no pictures as I was interpreting for my husband and my phone was in my bag!), but I was taken by how genuine he was - his smile and his care for others . You could just feel it resonating from him- nothing fake whatsoever. I just remember his asking us if we were having a good time. 
So today was Day 18 for me. Just shy of 3 weeks on this program. I sprinkled in some other workouts on the ship as well from 21 Day Fix Extreme and Body Beast, all of which were fun. 
I have to remark again how fast these 22 minutes get done and I don't even notice the time pass at all. 3 rounds of exercises and you're sweaty and feeling accomplished. 
I did pretty well today, but felt dehydrated as I know I did not drink nearly enough yesterday traveling. 
I don't care for the burpees press. Hate those , and I feel awkward sometimes on the lunge and swing back with the elbow move, but at least I can still swing the 15s with no issue. 
The corkscrew ab work is amazing - can really feel my abdomen maintaining through the engagement and haven't lost a thing from stopping Hammer & Chisel which is relieving. 
My thoughts today are how movement can change any bad attitude. I got woke done this morning for my coaching but I had not been able to do my workout because my little one woke up. But this's ok because she joined in later with me. Everything happens for a reason. She was excited to be with me- that's a reason in itself for not getting upset or frustrated. 
My family is such a part of what I do now that I can't imagine my life any other way. 
Either get moving or settle into dying. You choose !
