The sheer pride and compassionate detail that was put into this little garden tucked ever so gently in the middle of the city was photo and share worthy in my opinion. So unassuming. Not to mention my outfit had me feeling extra cool too. Wearing my favorite Hiroshima Toyo Carps cap IN Hiroshima! I threw up the peace sign to contain my excitement.

There is always a bit of serenity within the chaos. It’s easy to overlook but it’s even easier to enjoy. Stop and smell the roses my friends.

Ab Circuit

Alil sauna Ab action.

Top: Bicycle crunches.
-Try to bring your elbow to the opposite knee and alternate.

Middle: Side plank with oblique crunch
-Tap the ground with your hip and bring back to starting position.

Bottom: Straight leg reverse crunch
-To make this easier you can bend your legs at the knee and raise your hips off of the ground. Here, I am doing the same movement, except I straightened my legs. Straight or bent, feet aren’t to touch the ground.

NOTE: These can be performed virtually anywhere. Make sure to be hydrated and listen to your body when doing in the sauna.

 

My favorite Number with abs is 25, and I do 4 sets. 100, baby. And obviously I think about donuts the whole time.

Aside from that, some of us were able to go on the rooftop and see the shelter’s garden. Continue reading “Rooftops”
