February's New to You Cross Training Challenge

Month 2 of Kim's New to You Cross Training Challenge was not as big of a success as January's challenge- probably because I did it last minute... as in ... today.
One of my new focuses of 2012 is to get STRONGER....
I'm not expecting crazy results like this hunk of meat Taylor,  <cough> team edward <cough>

But what I WOULD like is for running to come easier so I can go longer and faster with my runs. I enjoyed bootcamp so much last month, that I kept it up about twice a week for February, and before I knew it, February was almost over. 

I decided to re-visit something I tried just once back in August that I wasn't a fan of...

Brazilian Butt lift

 Brazilian Butt lift is actually a part of the Beach Body Program that promises the following: (taken from website) 

The secret is Leandro's proven TriAngle Training Method, which works all three major muscles of the buttocks from multiple angles to:

SHAPE your gluteal muscles to get you that perfectly round Brazilian "bum bum"

LIFT your butt to look great from every angle

FIRM your butt and thighs and melt away those stubborn saddlebags

Leandro combines Brazilian dance, cardio and signature lower-body sculpting moves to help you look divine from behind." 

If you like a cuban accent, you got it. If you like shaking your butt, you got it. If you like looking stupid while you try to figure moves out, you got it. I remember back in August I was SO SORE for 2 days after doing it, so time will tell in the next handful of days in how my body reacts.  To be fair, I'm going to do this video a few more times before judging on if its right for me.

So unfortunately I can't give you much to go on, but I promise for a better review in a few weeks- in the mean time, here's a recycled video of after "bum bum" 6 months ago
