Finished week 2 of the Barre3 Spring Challenge this past Sunday. I wasn’t happy with how my week went because my right hip has been hurting. I think doing 60 mins of a Barre workout all at once, multiple times a week has aggravated it. 🙁 (I already have right hips issues and need to be adjusted by a chiropractor to get it back into place but I haven’t been doing it.) I was really discouraged this weekend wondering what I should do because I didn’t want to give up doing Barre work with only 2 more weeks of the challenge. Then I decided that just because I can’t do 60 minutes of Barre every day, doesn’t mean I should give up. I will just do 10-20 minutes of Barre along with other workouts to get my daily 1 hour of a workout in!! I decided to include Leslie Sansone walking dvds and 21 Day Fix strength training with weights dvds.
Here’s my workouts this week:

How did you do last week with your workouts? What do you do when you get discouraged about your eating or exercising plans?
I totally understand, having a bad back – I hope reducing the time is helping the hip heal. What do I do when I get discouraged? … well, what I’m tempted to do (and have done in the past) is give up or get really depressed, which of course also usually leads to giving up. But I try to just remember that this healthy eating/exercising thing is life long… it’s a journey, and sometimes journeys have small detours. Sometimes we can’t see the road ahead, but if we just keep our heads and keep following the directions, we’ll get there. 🙂 Like that road-tripping metaphor? 😉
