Boot Camp-Month 2

I am absolutely loving Boot Camp.  So much so that I enrolled for my second month.  I love how strong I feel and of course, the looseness in my clothes helps, too.  My core is getting stronger and I'm now able to do a lot of the main core work that I couldn't do in the beginning, such as the roll up.  You may find this as suprising as I did: apparently having 2 children in 2 years isn't the best recipe for a strong core.  Who knew?!  After the first 2 weeks or so of having to do adapted roll-ups, I can now do them unassisted.  I have yet to have a day where I wasn't sore.  It's all about muscle confusion, and I will definitely attest to the fact that my muscles apparently stay confused.  I love it! 

I'm getting used to my early morning, COLD runs.  I'm looking forward to the warmer weather, though, because that will make the early morning runs not so bad.  I love how I am pushed to my limits daily.  I'm pretty sure that I would never push myself as hard as I have to at that time in the morning.  It has been the perfect fit for me.  It makes me feel better, though, when other army guys come in to do the class and struggle with the same things I do since they never focus on their core, either! 

I'm looking forward to the rest of month 2 and continuing on with even more months of classes.  You should definitely check out a boot camp.  I know not all of them are like this one, but if you like a challenge and being pushed to your limit, you'll love it!  Plus, our teacher is a softy deep down and isn't one that stays on us or anything.  He's not anything like I imagined.  He's very encouraging and makes sure that you succeed if you try.  Anyway, try it!
