What Do You Love Doing?

Earlier this week I caught up with a good friend of mine who owns a studio and when I walked in my eyes lit up, it was a flash back to my gymnastics days! There were bars, rings, a floor.. all the fun equipment where I used to be able to do what I loved.

Or so I thought…

Within minutes of being in the gym I was on the floor demonstrating my handstand skills, which I might mention I haven’t attempted in a good few years. (yes this photo was taken before my legs were together for the actual handstand)

Then I decided it was time to get up on the rings, yes that’s me holding a crucifix, well almost anyway.

It amazed me how my body had managed to remember how to do some of these skills. Was it hard? You bet. But I was having so much fun I didn’t care about how sore I was how sore I knew I was going to be the next few days. We played around for a while until I had finally given my body enough of a beating then it was time for business talk, of course!

So what’s my point to all this? my question today is, What do you love doing?

Find something you enjoy doing and stick with it. Exercise on your own can be very boring and mundane if a) you don’t know what you’re doing or b) you keep doing the same thing over and over again.

I am going to commit to using this studio once a week for the next month and see how I go (I should probably ask Benny first before posting it to the world..too late for that). My body has taken a severe beating this year with surgeries and chemotherapy so I’m taking it slow and will progress when I feel I can.

So there’s your task, a new year is coming so it’s time to add something fun and exciting to your life, whatever that may be. I want to hear of what you have planned to change in your life for 2012 so add your thoughts in the comments section.

Wishing you a year of happiness and health in 2012
