a breath of fresh air

I can't believe I felt so much like giving up last week. my joints were feelin' it pretty bad and I felt like what I had been working on form-wise was thrown completely back into reverse.

I need to work on being less hard on myself. period.
doesn't mean I have to be any less aggressive in my pursuits, just more adaptable.

joints feel terrible? work on flexibility. do heel raises or abs, something that won't cause a lot of impact. it's just not the time to work on leaps.

you will become stronger, more flexible, more confident this year. it's going to happen.
