I know lots of you have pets and I just wanted to share some funny animal stories.
I have a parrot, an iguana and a 5 month old dachshund puppy that make my workouts interesting on a daily basis. Yesterday, as I was beginning S&I my iguana runs out from under the couch and viciously bites my step, then proceeds to rest her head on the edge and go to sleep! After several "L" steps over her head she woke up and went back under the couch. My parrot hates my workout gloves and water bottle and totally freaks out every time she sees them. But my puppy is the real riot. He enjoys the following:
- jumping on my back while I'm doing staggered push ups;
- Hanging on my leg during PS leg lifts as if my leg is an amusement park ride (and adding 8lbs to my lift);
- jumping up on the bench and lying down when I sit up during rest periods of bench presses, forcing me to pick him up and move him to continue;
- grabbing on to my ponytail like a tug toy while I'm doing crunches or wiggling under my back so I can't lower down.
Apparantly, when he hears Cathe's voice it signals "play time". Most of the time he gets me laughing so hard I have to stop and rewind.
Just thought I'd share.
