Noticing change one jump at a time...

I have a little brag on me story to tell but for you to understand my excitement I have to give you a little back story. I will try to make this short. After I had my third child I am became a full time mom because my awesome husband works really hard so I stay home. Well before that I had a job that allowed me to stay active and I worked out. I was in pretty good shape. At my fifteenth month of not working and strictly "life guarding" children I had my fourth child. Six weeks after birth I got the all clear to workout and I quickly realized I could not even do a jumping jack, you know that exercise that all elementary school kids can do forever. I could not even get my feet to lift off the carpet for the jumping part. I was way out of shape. Jump forward to last night at the Y, two weeks after I committed to Les Mills Combat training. I jumped up to block the ball because when you played back in the day you brain doesn't forget what to do. Even if your body can't do it!! And guess what? I blocked it... I really blocked it! My feet lifted off the ground enough to allow my hands to go above the net which is approximately 7' 8 1/4" tall. Now that people is amazing. I was so shocked I barely remembered I had to recover the ball. I had only been doing the workout for two weeks. Two weeks and I can jump like that. I can't wait to see what happens when I get to week four. I am so excited about my progress that I am going to race my children this weekend to see if I am any faster. New goal....be able to outrun my children because two weeks ago I could not do that either. If you want to join me in my progress and have a story to tell of your own go to Jill's Health and Fitness page and like my page and send me a message. I would love to support you in your journey and have you on my team.
