MY "ALOHA TUESDAY".

ALOHA EVERYONE!!!

AGAIN I WOKE AT 4:00AM FOR ANOTHER SET OF WORKOUTS!!!

THE AFTER EFFECTS IS AMAZING!!!  I LOVE TO RECHARGE MY BODY BEFORE I GO TO WORK!!!

AND GUESS WHAT I HAD FOR LUNCH...  "SHAKEOLOGY" AND A FRESH PAPAYA FROM THE BIG ISLAND...  YES I REPEAT...  FROM THE BIG ISLAND...  PLEASE DON'T ASK HOW MUCH I PAID FOR THIS...  LOL!!!

I LOVE PAPAYAS...  EVERYTIME I GO HOME TO HILO, HAWAI'I...  I HIT THE FARMERS MARKET AND EAT AT LEAST 3-5 PAPAYAS DAILY!!!

AND FOR THE DECEMBER PHOTO OF THE DAY - DECEMBER 16TH, 2014 - "PEACE"

 THIS IS AN EXERCISE MOVE I LEARNED FROM "PiYo"...  WHICH LITERALLY KICKS MY ASS EVERY TIME I DO THIS...  BUT I LOVE IT!!!

AWWWRITE!!!

KICKING MY "ALOHA MONDAY" MORNING HARDCORE!!!

ALOHA EVERYONE!!!

I GOT UP AT 4;00AM IN THE MORNING...  TOOK MY VITAMINS & FIBER...  AND STRAIGHT TO MY WORKOUTS!!!

90 MINUTES LATER...  I KILLED BOTH OF WORKOUTS!!!

AND NEXT UP...  STRAIGHT TO WORK FOR MY ANNUAL "CONTROLLED-TACTICS" TRAINING!!!

I GOT THE WHOLE PLACE TO MYSELF...  WHO WANTS TO GET RESTRAINED???

FOR LUNCH I SHARED MY VIETNAMESE SPRING ROLLS THAT TRINA MADE FOR ME THE DAY BEFORE!!!

MAHALO NUI LOA E TRINA...  YOU ARE THE BEST!!!

MY CO-WORKER, TONY WHO ALSO IS TAKING THE TRAINING WITH ME!!!

I MUST ADMIT...  I'VE BEEN DOING THIS TRAINING EVERY YEAR FOR THE LAST 13 YEARS, BUT THIS TRAINING WAS DIFFERENT...  I WAS MORE FLEXIBLE, MORE AGILE, MORE STAMINA, MORE STRONGER THAN ALL OF MY PAST CLASSES.  I CAN CREDIT MY TRAINING AND WORKOUTS OVER THE LAST 2-3 YEARS WHEN I STARTED...  HOWEVER...  IF I HAD TO CREDIT ONE THING...  I GIVE IT TO "PIYO" TRAINING!!!

IT IS ALL ABOUT "CORE-STRENGTH" AND MIXING BOTH "PILATES" & "YOGA" TOGETHER WITH ADDED STRENGTH & CARDIO...  THIS HAS DEFINITELY ADDED HUGE IMPROVEMENTS TO MY HEALTH & BODY!!!

I LOOK FORWARD TO DOING "PIYO" FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE WITH MORE EXCITING TRAININGS TO ADD TO IT!!!

I WANT TO GIVE A SPECIAL SHOUT OUT TO MY WONDERFUL COACH, ANGELA FOR INTRODUCING ME TO "PIYO"...  MEETING YOU IN OCTOBER 2014 AT THE IRONMAN TRIATHLON WAS NO "COINCIDENCE", IT WAS A PRAYER THAT WAS ANSWERED!!!

AND FOR THAT...  I AM FOREVER GRATEFUL!!!

AND FOR THE DECEMBER PHOTO OF THE DAY - DECEMBER 15TH, 2014 - "SPARKLE"...

BE READY FOR THIS ONE...  LOL!!!

I'LL ADMIT...  I LOVE MY GUNS...  THE "OTHER GUNS"...  LOL!!!

AWWWRITE!!!

AND GUESS WHAT...  MY BODY WASN'T KIDDING.
