Thankful it is Friday!
I am thankful for Friday! I am thankful that my Tabata Boot Camp Class both occurred and is over.. I feel success and empowerment! If you are not familiar with Tabata, well is is a summary.
Here is a VERY close example of just what I did for an HOUR this morning!
from http://badassfitness.typepad.com/badass-fitness/2012/04/all-tabata-bootcamp-burn-it-out.html
All-Tabata Bootcamp: Burn it Out
Tabata. You know it burns. But you also know it works – torching calories and working lots of muscles. And if you alternate cardio Tabata drills with strength Tabata and even core Tabata drills, it can become the format for an entire bootcamp class or solo sweat session. Each Tabata circuit is 4 minutes long and consists of 20-second working intervals followed by 10 seconds of rest, for a total of 8 rounds. This method is one of the most efficient methods of exercise. You get a full workout that works you head to toe, yet doesn’t require 90 minutes or two hours of your time.
A couple dozen students and I proved it last week with the boot camp routine below. This one uses little equipment – just dumbbells – and even that can be swapped out for resistance bands. So give this a whirl, knowing that at the end of the 45 minutes or so you will have pushed your Badass to the limit – and conquered!
All-Tabata Badass Bootcamp

So you get the picture! Well I have survived three of these classes. I am PROUD of myself! I figure I can DO ANYTHING for 20 seconds and I can! Tonight I get to hang out with my sweet boys and man. Tomorrow I do not have to wake up at 6:30 AM and I get to hang out all weekend with my family at HOME! I may work on my three year”no progress” painting! So yes, I am evolving into a super health freak…(what is new), and now my body had better look just like Xena the warrior princess on my 40th birthday.. (six months away).
I am thankful for Friday! I am thankful to have a body that can move through a challenging class. I am thankful for quality time with my family and my creative freedoms.. “Let’s get ready to RUMBLE!”

Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme of this site. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s difficult to get that “perfect balance” between usability and visual appearance. I must say you’ve done a fantastic job with this. Also, the blog loads very quick for me on Internet explorer. Superb Blog!

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.

Aw, this was an incredibly nice post. Taking the time and actual effort to create a great article… but what can I say… I procrastinate a lot and never manage to get anything done.

Hey just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your content seem to be running off the screen in Opera. I’m not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with web browser compatibility but I figured I’d post to let you know. The design and style look great though! Hope you get the issue fixed soon. Many thanks

Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
