Look out Navy Seals Here we come! THM is stepping up the pace together. During every squat I thought of all of us united in purpose... united in Mama power… united in our strength to push through the excuses and brick walls of "can't do's" and fight for our health! Not for the sake of vanity, but for a noble vision of vitality for the very life we have been blessed with and for our husbands, children and children's children to come.
During my last set of jump squats I put more air between the ground and me with the thought of encouraging and cheer leading you on!! I felt the friendship of our journey together and with the last leap into the air I screamed out "WE DID IT MATES!" in a panting Australian accent. Have you ever seen the movie "Babe" about the pig and the old farmer who trained him to herd the sheep? Do you remember the way he did a funny jig ad leapt into the air in triumph? Well that was me this morning... just as jubilant and just as funny and uncoordinated to look at with my shaking thighs.
I hear that due to a printing mistake in our book many of you got let of the hook and thought that “The Spew” was just one sequence. You were blessed with this typo just this once as we have already called our printers this morning and had this changed to include the beautiful word REPEAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Won't that be nice?
If you did it only once, you did not fail. You prevailed. If you are a beginner, doing the sequence once is probably all your muscles could handle. If you are an old pro, you probably did it again just for kicks anyway or added it on to your regular rigorous routine like I did.
Pregnant woman do not need to jump and can do the whole thing without advancing to get air underneath them. Completing two full segments with maybe adding 8-10 pound dumbbells to what would be the jump segment (for the fit) will be a great little workout.
Thank you to all my THM sisters who joined me in the fight against rotting stagnant bodies. I say you can reclaim your health and strength and get better as you age instead of more rusty.
Let's fire up our metabolism's together and keep up an exercise routine at least 4 times a week. Remember keep it short and intense. Fun and fast. Never long and boring PLEASE! I will be calling on you for more community workouts. So get ready, keep training and watch for my loud bugle blow to bust our guts together.
Love Serene
