Dieting
So I am starting my diet soon, this week, the progressive lean down which will progress as needed.
I am doing this on a lacto ovo pescatarian diet meaning I will eat very limited fish, some eggs/egg whites, and probably high protein dairy. I may have to use my juicer for some produce options as my appetite can vary so I have become creative on how to get my nutrients in.
I just need to diet comfortably and not aggravate any issue, I cannot suffer through the next 3 months in agony or pain with ibs so I look forward to going back to some old dieting ways but improved! I have new options now than I did years ago and now that I know what pisses my system off I can diet without constant headaches and intestinal distress.
Routine
Routine practice started with some fluffly walkthrough by pacing out my timing but no full on moves and yet I got sweat! I am ready to start doing the routine full on with no music to teach my body what I expect then start to push it to music once I can speed up the moves. I also like to do blocks with music so if I lose time I resume where I can getting a block in as I can. Memory is all part of it too but my routine is familiar, the moves are ones I am strong with........just have to polish transitions and maybe fill in some small small gaps.
I am so excited with my theme cuz its familiar, everyone will know it and remember the girl who did..XXXX...shhh not telling yet. Also I love the music and feel, I love the moves as they look strong and confident, my body knows them and does them well so I won't be stressing over new moves to nail or worried about familiarity as it will come fast- I usually try to push myself more with some new move that I kill myself over but I just want to do this smoothly, make an impression and get a strong win.
Creativity is strong here, it is a memorable theme and my moves will be memorable, a few of them always get oohs and aaahs. I brought back a few from recently and a few from the old days.
Workouts
Training will be kicked up now and here we go! I have all the pieces and now to put them all together. A blend of exercises, plyos, skills, drills, aerobic, anaerobic, balance, agility, speed, strength, flexibility!
