Insanity Day 1: Fit Test

Today, I ate like I normally would. Not healthy, not unhealthy.. just sustenance. A butt-load of water.. like usual.

It was the initial FIT TEST for me today. I thought I was going to die. I did this POST two hours of jazz and hip hop.

The results are in.
1. SWITCH KICKS : 41? (I semi lost count after 30-ish)
2. POWER JACKS : 45
3. POWER KNEES : 80
4. POWER JUMPS : 30
5. GLOBE JUMPS : 8 (I almost lost faith here)
6. SUICIDE JUMPS : 10 (and here)
7. PUSH-UP JACKS : 18
8. LOW PLANK OBLIQUES : 50

But I FINISHED. That counts for something, right?

Also, I DIDN’T buy a heart rate monitor OR consult a doctor. Probably wouldn’t hurt. Buuuuut, oh well.

Until next time :)

Explanation

I feel like I need to explain myself for the rash decision I made today. I tried out for the competition team. I’m happy and blessed to be able to do so. Then, within the half hour between those auditions and dance ensemble auditions… I decided to not do dance emsemble. I said its because I don’t want to overcommit myself.. I don’t want to overcommit because of tthe time commitment. And the financial commitment. If I did audition, I’d be writing checks that can’t be cashed.. both physically AND financially. I’m already obligated to a quinceanera that I’m choreographing. That will be thru the beginning of June. And financially… I couldn’t even afford the second audition fee… what makes me think I’d be able to afford costume fees and an additional practice fee. I can’t. I know it feels like a cop out. And I know I’m going to regret it. Believe me, tears were shed when I had to drive away… but I know my pocketbook is going to thank me.. I at least have about $7 to last me until I get paid next.

It’s life and I realize that, but its NOT fair to want to pursue your dreams when you can’t finance them :(

This sucks.
