Training Like a Pro, Aldrige Garden, Saturday Shenanigans, Monday Blues, Keep Fighting

Fun at Aldridge Park Gardens

Sunday is THAT exhausting

Sunday Best; even Jack thought he was good looking enough to be in the picture

On our way to Preschool

Power Rangers OBVIOUSLY don't go on missions 😂😂. At least he's got the song down for the primary program

And of course Amari likes the gross songs. Hes got such a funny sense of humor.

When big brother's away mom and Amari will play :) Adventures with this 2 year old ‪#‎whilebigbrothersawaylilbrotherwillplay‬‪#‎mommy‬ ‪#‎amariari‬ ‪#‎gymgoers‬ ‪#‎2yearold‬ ‪#‎crazystage‬

Beck's loves playing with his cat Jack

I officially survived my first training with Marcel. Training with a professional athlete/fighter who trains more than anyone I know (sometimes 6 hrs a day) has taught me 3 things:

1-I'm not as strong or in as good of shape as I thought I was. 😂

2-form is EVERYTHING–I haven't felt pain- free like this, just in the past 3 days, in years, and I'm training harder and being pushed to do the most insane workouts I've ever done.

3-never say never. Albeit, for the first time in my life since gaining a passion for fitness at the age of 16, I wanted to bawl my eyes out after my first day of training, day 3 I realize that I can do this. I told mike, maybe I'm too old to be starting on this journey of intensity but you're never too old to do anything. It's all in your head: if you think you can do it, you can; if you think you can't, you can't.

So excited about this new journey. So, SO grateful to be able to train with someone so knowledgeable and someone at this type of athletic level—I needed to step up my game...time to train like an athlete. ‪#‎neversaynever‬‪#‎nevergiveup‬ ‪#‎mindovermatter‬ ‪#‎strengthwillpowerdetermination‬
