Photos taken about 4 months apart, and I haven’t had much of a steady practice this semester either. Don’t believe anyone that says they aren’t #flexible enough for #yoga 😊

Some falling #tree action. The stronger I get, the less I hate planking ! #progress #yoga #asana #sideplank #vrksasana

Check out my goal pants! When I bought these I could hardly button them up!

I’ve finally got my hips to sit above my shoulders without using a wall :) happy days! #progress

Progress pic. Managed to slim down and still gain weight #win #lifterproblems #ladylifter #fit #fitgirl #fitness #progress #flex #bicepday

I failed a lift for the first time this morning.

The feeling really sucks…

But I’m going to look on the bright side,

I’m pushing myself to my limits now rather than taking it easy

It’s a fundraiser for breast cancer

And I’m going as a team with some people from my Fitness program

I’m excited !!

because:
1. I’ve never posted one before so why not.
2. I’m super proud of the visual progress in my arms. No longer do I feel like I may take flight if I flap my arms around.
