I just love going to the gym to workout. Part of it is how training makes me feel, part of it is how training makes me look and part of it is how training helps me think. I am frequently so focused on my business and projects that I can easily get lost in my thoughts and in the day to day challenges that come with business and life. Going to the gym and working out is like going to church in a way. My workouts can be analogized as a religious experience in what they do for me. The gym is a place that I go to each day to improve my fitness, to maintain my health and to clear my mind and collect my thoughts. In the right gym you are surrounded by people who are all there feeding off of each others positive energy.
After my aerobic workout, I like to go to the local Farmers Market for locally grown seasonal fruit, vegetables and flowers. Most of what’s grown in California is organic which is also a plus because all of the preservatives and pesticides used in our processed, pre-packaged foods have been shown to contribute to many diseases like cancer. And, today, I had a blast running with the herd in the petting zoo they set up.
I’ve never, ever, gone to the gym for a workout and walked out of the gym saying “I wish I hadn’t done that”. Working out always makes me feel good. Today I rocked a back workout, threw in a couple of abdominal exercises and hit the steps for 20. And now I’m ready to get back to the office Work it friends, and be sure to share the results, you’re bound to inspire more than yourself.
I’m all packed up and ready to head to Columbus for this years Arnold’s Fitness Weekend. For those of you who will be there, I look forward to seeing you and for those of you who can’t make it this year, I promise to take pictures to share with you. Stay tuned for weekend details. xoxo Denise
It’s almost 9pm my time and I still have to get to the gym to train my arms…an ambitious woman’s work is never done! Did you get your workout in today?
I got into the gym late today, but my back workout felt great. Sometimes you go into the gym and you feel like you are part of the machine. The movement is smooth, you feel strong and you sense that your body is thanking you for testing it. For pushing it to new heights, for helping it grow stronger. My body craves the stimulation and I love the results…all of them! xoxo Denise
…tight and sore and so are my legs. I got back into the gym this week, starting on Monday with a back workout, chest workout on Tuesday and then Leg workout yesterday. In between I have been hiking the mountains so my entire body is tight and sore. Yummmmmmmmmm
Twist me, turn me, pull me, push me. Lay on top of me, walk all over me for fuck sake! I love it and I’ll be back for more! That’s what I like to hear… but this time, I’m saying it I just got out of a 1 hour Thai/Swedish massage session and my body is still floating. Massage does a body and mind good…now I’m working on my happy ending. Mmmm xoxo Denise
Wow, I can hardly believe it. The House actually passed a health care reform bill. What a fantastic step forward. There is now hope for a better health care system in America. Now all we need is some stronger campaign finance reform so that we don’t have to worry about whether or not our elected officials are making decisions and passing legislation based on financially based alliances with huge corporate interests. Congratulations to all of the people that have worked so hard on making this happen, including the millions of Americans who have made their voices heard. Wishing you and yours the wealth that is health. Denise
