Today's marks the first day of a new diet experiment. Well not entirely new, but kinda. Lets do a little back tracking. On my dieting/lifestyle changes in around October 2009 after attending CF Nutrition cert with Robb Wolf. I decided to give Paleo a serious go. Everyone had a blog talking about all these great changes upon going Paleo, weight loss, feeling great, performing well, the world becoming a new a brighter world. Well I quite frankly didn't really have any of that. I didn't really lose any weight. Performance did well, but I had never plateaued, so was it diet or just getting better at CF? I will say I think it did help with my recovery and soreness, but other than that I didn't FEEL any different. Other then when I cheated, then, then I paid a mighty price...but only sometimes. My stomach became bipolar. One day good eating 'good', another bad while eating 'good'. And both of the opposites there too....
I tried the intro to trapeze a few weeks ago, but his was a lot more intense! I went to an aerial fabric dancing workshop. This was very challenging but a lot of fun. Especially because have a problem with being up high (I wouldn't say I am afraid of heights- I just happen to panic when I notice I am up high that's all). I don't think I would have been able to do this had I not gone climbing/bouldering a few weeks ago and got a little more comfortable with my strength and trusting myself. Also I officially climbed the rope at the gym for the first time the day before, again the up high thing. So the first picture I am doing the 'gazelle' (?)oh I wish I had pointed my toes. The next pictures I don't know what the moves were called but I got to do a drop. You get your legs wrapped in the fabric (the diaper- wow uncomfortable- you can see my butt being squished), and you have to pull yourself up, pull your legs through, cross and pull legs through again....
