Happy New Year, Happy UBBT 8!

Here it is–the start of a new year! I’m doing something on this day I’ve never done before–reviewing UBBT numbers from December. Wow! 46,350 pushups to go….

We are saying goodbye to visiting family today, and also a good number of sugary holiday treats, some of which, I have to say, actually entered my body. I cleaned the pantry and refrigerator yesterday and had a wonderful breakfast of green tea and miso with tofu, onions and mushrooms.

I’m very glad I took time out during this holiday break to get a massage. The massage therapist has experience with judo and practices wing chun.  I was not aware of this before making the appointment, but it sure helped in that he understood perfectly where all the soreness was. I think I’ll be seeing him a few times this next year.

It was a great morning at the gym–not crowded yet. My greatest achievement here was getting a little more on target with the back kick in #9.  The extra hip flexor stretching helped so much!

Let’s do this thing!
