Back in the Game


It has been 5.5 months since I fell off the p90x wagon. I am back in the game as of yesterday. P90x is an intense exercise program where you work out for about an hour daily at home. The thing that makes this program work is that everyday is a different workout so what happens is that you experience muscle confusion which means that the body doesn't get a chance to plateau (which is what usually happens in the gym). Getting laid off and starting the etsy store meant even more days (and nights) sitting and working. When I had the graphic design job I would at least take breaks and lunches! Any one who has an etsy store knows how hard we work and how addicting it is to be online and promoting...My body definitely feels it. One thing I really don't like (hate actually) about painting and crafts is how your body is often hunched over for hours on end...it is really hard to stop working when you are in that creative zone... But a new zone is something I need to get back into. That is the sweat, heart thumping, hard core mental and physical zone of movement and exercise!
