{earth, wind + kaia}

This cracked me up.  You have a great personality…lol.  This is 100% how I feel after the Holiday weekend.  Too much everything!!  I was back to Kaia Monday morning for a kick ass workout.  Literally.  It kicked my ass.

The new CORE Challenge – Keep On Truckin’ (K.O.T. Challenge)

Chase your pace…this is only YOUR race!!

I Love the message.  No matter how fast or slow…just keep on truckin’.

K.O.T. Challenge

WARM UP – 3 minutes of agility and strength –

High Knees, Lunges, Butt Kickers, Squats + Grapevine.

AMRAP – 20 reps of each

1. Shoulder Thruster
2. Plank Frogger
3. Sit Up
4. Tricep Push Up
5. Squat Jump
6. Run (to stop sign + back)

We have 15 minutes to get through this series as many times as possible.

The Tricep Push Up kills me every time.  Clearly something I need to spend some time working on at home.

Below are my Week #1 + Week #2 Score Sheet results.  Week #1 I’m always a little unsure of what’s going on. Week #2 I was able to make it trough 2 more stop sign runs.  I was pumped.

My personal goal – make it through the AMRAP 4x.  Is that possible?  We shall see.

Anyone ready Coaches Corner in the Week #2 Newsletter?

Coach Melika shared her morning Tonic Tea recipe.  I honestly have slacked on this lately.  I used to make it first thing every morning.  And will get back to it tomorrow morning.

Tonic Tea

• 1 cup hot water
• 1/2 squeezed lemon
• pinch of cinnamon
• pinch of cayenne pepper
• ginger, to your taste

Let it steep for a minute and enjoy.

It really does kick start your day.  I like to sip on this tea during my drive to Kaia in the morning.
