Week 41 - blind strength

[susandennis]

I took my little book of notes and got all settled in and ready and opened up my book to discover that I'd forgotten to put my contact in.  No could read!  So I freelanced.  I did all of the routines that 1.  I could remember and 2.  I didn't hate and then I did some squats for discipline.  Rosie always says to only do repetitions until I get tired and not to push beyond because 'your form goes to hell'.  It's better, she says, at this point to do them correctly. 

So I did a bunch of different ones alternating various body parts and I even invented a new one.  She wants me to do alternating arm curls with 8 pound weights while balanced on one foot.  I cannot balance on one foot squarely for more than 5 seconds usually.  So I'm practicing doing that while just holding the weights.  And she wants me to balance for 2 minutes on the upside down blue half ball (I call it the blue soup because that's what I thought she called it for the longest time).  Actually, I've gotten good at that. So today, I got up onto the flat side of the blue soup with 8 pound weights and did my arm curls perfectly.  I heard her say 'Excellent!!'

hehehe  I am so amusing.

Home now and into the shower and then out!
