Sanders Optimum Boot Camp (Day 11)
I'm sad. Tomorrow is the last day of this session for boot camp. Over the past 4 weeks I feel myself getting stronger. I mean I am stronger and faster. Who knew what a difference a month could make. And guess what you guys? Because of the need to have the energy for the workouts, I stopped drinking glasses of wine during the week. ...
Sanders Optimum Boot Camp (Day 9)
It's Thursday morning, dark outside and the summer breeze is going. I pick up my neighbor and we head on over to the gymnasium. We get inside, stretch and are blessed with only 5 laps around the gym. And then IT IS ON! We start with variations of the ladders which had me struggling on day one. I was so uncoordinated. But TODAY? ...

I mean it woke me up in the middle of the night to the point I had to sleep with the pillow ...

After that warm ...
