Fitmom

Ok, so I have to plug Fitmom again! The reason this time is that I was skiing on Monday – the first time in 6 years – we had to go because we received ski cards for Christmas and the season is almost over! I was a little leery about getting out on the slopes again since the last time was 6 years ago and it had not gone well after a hip injury from a couple years prior to that. Then since that time, I have had two children – also tough on the hips. Anyway, Monday went extremely well. I felt stronger than I had in a long time and I am absolutely attributing it to all of the squats and lunges I have been doing at Fitmom (okay and help from my physiotherapist!). I was not even very sore yesterday – you know how you usually feel the little muscles that you never use after a day of any activity that you do not do very often. Well, I felt awesome – Monica is obviously doing an amazing job at an overall workout!! This strength and endurance is going to be particularly important when I get my son out there next year!!
