When Abbye Eville wanted to shed some pounds, her then-boyfriend Les Stockton encouraged her to lift weights at Santa Monica’s Muscle Beach. She soon became known as “Queen of the Barbelles” & became the poster-girl for fitness. In the 1940s, she organized the first all-female weight-lifting contest and opened the first all women’s gym in the United States.

Today’s workout: Alligators.
So I was out kayaking, about 15 minutes into the planned two hours, when there was a massive splash right next to my kayak, by what can only be described as a bigass alligator.
Not even kidding.
So, I got the hell out of there, and did the kayak equivalent of a sprint for about ten minutes until I got back to the dock.
I tried calming down and going back out, but every splash unnerved me and finally when I spotted the ripples of one underwater, I had it. Headed back, packed up the kayak and left.
Apparently there’ve been a lot of them lately.
Then went to gym, did an hour of crossfit and about 20 mins of muay thai before my knee gave out and I was sick to my stomach from being in the heat all afternoon (around 100 degrees).
Not a fun day. -
8/7 workout
Hour crossfit
Hour muay thai
Yeah I’m tired. Got a mad knot in shoulder/neck that was super tight through the whole workout, along with another one along my spine.
Anyways, kicks are looking better and so is my ab strength! I’m still surprised by how easy it was for me to do the fireman’s and koala carries.
Night y’all. -

8/6 workout
45 minutes various full body exercises
So I missed most of today’s practice as there was an emergency and I had to watch a kid until his family got back from the hospital.
Priorities.
Managed to make it in time to do things like rounds of fireman’s carries, bear crawl, koala carries, and ab work.
A short workout is always better than no workout! -
8/4 workout: back in the knee brace
2 hours mma
Mainly worked on ground and pound today, learned some heel locks, (including a double heel lock!) which left my calves pretty cramped, and did takedowns and submissions for most of the time.
So yesterday I did about 2 hours of jet skiing, and my knee started bothering me. Now, I have a bad knee and random things really irritate it, like the bracing you do with your legs on jet skis.
By this afternoon after practice, my knee was killing me. It hurt to stand for too long and I had a bit of a limp when I walked, so when I got back home I put my knee brace on.
It seriously hurts. Like omg. I need this to go away soon, please!
Anyways, that was today’s practice. Night y’all. -
7/30 workout
1.5 hours wrestling
Went light today as I’m still nursing a strained muscle in my abs, and I have to get up early to drive over four hours.
Il be away at freshman camp until Friday, but queue is set and il try and get to questions and stuff when I can.
Ask me things while I’m gone?
Off to bed, hopefully my abs feel better in the morning
