Practice with the Clippers

Tuesday, January 20th, 2009

Hi all….it’s been a while since my last posting.  So I thought I’d catch up with you.  This year is already on the 20th day.  Can you believe that?  Time flies.

Since 2009 began,  I’ve been busy and working out hard to get back my old body.  All of last year,  with the economy being so bad…..I didn’t have a budget for the gym.  That changed at the start of this year,  and I began going again.

I’m not quite back to my old workout regime now,  but I hope I will be sometime soon.  Right now it’s simple….1 mile jogging on the treadmill,  20 minutes on the stair climbing machine,  and 10 minutes on the bike….followed by different lifting regimes ^_^  OK…..before it was at least 2 miles jogging,  20 minutes on the bike,  and 20 minutes on the stair climber….along with all the weight lifting.  Don’t worry.  I will be back soon and taking more pics ^_^

heheheheh…right now I’m on strike from cameras…but in a month I’ll be better.  I don’t want to disappoint any of you.  I want you to only see me the way I am meant to be ^_^

So….it’s good that I’ve been working out.  I went to the Los Angeles Clippers practice facility this past Sunday afternoon for a clinic.  I did this last year,  so I knew what to expect.

I arrived a bit early,  and was rewarded with the ability to take shooting practice on the court with my own intern rebounding for me ^_^  That was so awesome.  I love shooting on professional courts.  It’s just so awesome…I can’t explain how nice it is.  Here is a picture of the facility where I was at:

That’s not the best pic….but it’s the only one I really found online.  Anyway,  once the clinic began than it was on.

I don’t know how many of you out there have trained like a professional athlete…..but it’s so hard.  I love it though.  We started with stretching.  That sounds easy right?  Well…..it’s actually the hardest part.  Going back and forth on a full size NBA Court doing running,  stretching,  and other drills.  Wow!  If I did that every day then I’d be in perfect shape ^_^  I wish I can do that every day.

Ok…..so after stretching then it was to basketball drills.  These are standard drills.  We did passing drills up and down the court.  Scoring drills,  layup drills.  It was awesome.  After an hour of that then our clinic was over.  We took a group photo with a coach and a few of the players.  Then we left with our souvenier aches and pains ^_^  It’s ok….I love all of them.

My weekend was awesome,  it’s too bad my Clips didn’t win yesterday afternoon.  It’s hard when so many people are hurt.  At least they’re trying their best,  and I will ALWAYS be there to support them.  I’m a very loyal person.

I love you all…..thank you for reading and being here always.  You’re so sweet. Muahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Take care.

Love always,
