But I am not a vinegar person. The smell alone kept me from it - until now. A yoga friend mentioned that she takes ACV with fresh lemon juice in her water. She assured me that "it just tastes salty, not super vinegary. It seemed easy enough to incorporate into my day without a huge commitment.
I filled up a ounce mason jar with water - I usually prefer cold water, but warm water was great on a chilly day. I poured in one tablespoon of ACV I went for raw, unpasteurized, and organic and squeezed in the juice from one-quarter of a lemon. The taste? I could still smell the vinegar slightly, so it definitely tasted a tad sharp and tangy, but not as pungent as I was expecting. It was like a slightly salty lemonade.
The fresh lemon juice was key - I ran out of lemons one day, and drinking ACV in plain water was pretty tough to swallow. I do intermittent fasting in the morning , so I drank my ACV lemon-water in the afternoon or after dinner. I found that the flavor grew on me. I thought drinking it every day would be a chore, but I started to look forward to it.
I found that I really enjoyed the ritual of sipping on my special ACV "cocktail. This ACV lemon water satiated my appetite more than plain old water, which helped curb my desire to nosh after dinner. The exact values I held in such high regard that helped me get to the level I was at.
I implore people to have a look at the pre-requisites for all of the categories at a national competition, absolutely nowhere does it say anywhere that you need to be a rock-star with a billion jumps and an athletes page on Facebook.
In reality it was another aspect of the sport that offered up those same feelings of any good days jumping. Another fantastic stepping-stone in my skydiving journey.
The world of competition skydiving has been a huge eye opener for me and has helped me become the skydiver I am today. I would strongly recommend anybody who wants to improve and is willing to challenge themselves, to learn from my mistakes and wasted time. Have a look at all the different categories available today, see where you can get involved and sign up.
Who knows where it will lead and what new road you will find yourself walking down. See you at the next nationals!
