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? ...
Sanders Optimum Boot Camp (Day 8)
Alright y'all. I felt GOOD today. I mean I felt ON this morning at 5:30 am. Perhaps it was the 7 hours of sleep. Maybe it was water I drank beforehand. Most likely it was the dinner I ate the night before. Whatever it was I was ready. Now I am not saying I was pleased with the 1 mile jog warm up under 7.5 minutes! Or saying I was ...
Sanders Optimum Boot Camp (Day 7)
It wasn't a good day y'all. I mean the workout was good. Monte did what he was supposed to do but the morning started off rocky. For one, I did not get a good night's sleep after going to bed after 11 pm because someone next to me was sawing logs. I mean it woke me up in the middle of the night to the point I had to sleep with the pillow ...
