About Me

I am gregarious. I am loyal. I'm opinionated. I care deeply. I find the casual nature of certain things offensive, yet I am laid back. I love animals. I'm a competitor. I believe in good manners. I have a big mouth. Sometimes I don't have a filter. I love food and drink. I cherish my family. I love my friends more than anything. I am reliable. I am quirky. I miss my dad every single day. I don't believe in half-assed. I am an environmentalist. I'm half a hippie. I get high from seeing/hearing live music. "Hi, I'm Steph, wanna play?!" quote by, Ward MacDonald

Core Performance Class Begins...

Joe chillaxin @ The Ice Chamber

Last Thursday I went to my first Core Performance Class at the Ice Chamber. On Tuesday I had proclaimed that I had experienced my best work-out in a year. And while that claim was true at the time, it was trumped by Thursday's class and then again by today's class. Wow, those Ice Chamber folks really know how to push you to your limits! It's intense. Plus, an hour long class is a longer time-frame than I had been accustomed to.

On Thursday, we ran some outdoor team relays: running, ball tosses up the building and jumping jacks. Returning inside, we did an obscene amount of dumbbell work, one-legged push-ups, dive-bombers and tons and tons of burpees.

Today we got in a fair amount of running, and also some upper body dumbbell work. Then we were lead to the slaughter...the slaughter of our legs. Pairs were established and then we began alternating jump squats and spin-biking for time. Jess threw in some mountain climbers and plank holds at the end for good measure.

Tomorrow is my first class that's focused on kettlebells. I'm SO EXCITED! SO EXCITED! SO EXCITED!
