January Goal- Success!

I completed my goal!!! For the four weeks of January that I had classes, I made my 3x/week gym goal or exceeded it!

Jan 3-9: 3 times
Jan 10-16: 4 times
Jan 17-23: 6 times (woo hoo!)
Jan 24-30: 4 times (estimated, since I did 3 this week already and have a class I plan to attend on Saturday morning)

So... I wanted to get to the gym 12 times in 4 weeks... I went (inc this coming Saturday) 17 times! That's 5 over goal!!! So, I earned my massage. So far, I'm sore but still happy to be going. Hopefully the same will be true in February. So far, my classes have all been strength training (pilates, yoga, a pilates-yoga-tai chi fusion), so my hope for February is to add in a cardio class a week. I take walks with the kids when weather permits but it is winter in Pennsylvania, so that's maybe once a week and usually only the quarter mile to the store and back. We shall see...

I think I will be emailing the spa for my hour and a half of relaxation! Yay!

    I am so excited you get your massage. I have never had one. (when the doctor patted my shoulder one day I screamed so I can't imagine a a massage)Though I must say, You earned a life time of monthly massages for all that bed rest you willingly did! xoxo, Kandi
