So this morning I attended my first aerobics class post baby...okay, let's be honest, it's my first class in like a year! We chose to attend an 8:15am set aerobics class. I drove and we got there at 8:14 and the room was packed! Who knew so many people were gluttons for punishment on a Saturday morning! So we get started, I start sweating, breathing hard, but things are going well...then the warm-up stops and the combinations begin.....AAAUUUUGGGGHHHHH!!!!
Okay, I wasn't the only one who was getting lost occasionally, but there were very few of us! I would look over and Stephanie and I would just look at each other, desperate for the other one to lead us back! About 20 min into it my left knee started hurting...and then I just got cranky. You ever notice that in every aerobics class there is one woman, about 60 years old, who while you are drenched in sweat, breathing hard and losing the rhythm, has nary a glow to the skin, seems to be breathing the same as one would when walking the aisles of a grocery store and never loses her rhythm and makes it all seem to effortless? Well, I typically try to stay away from these types, as I get annoyed in class, but today she was right in front of me. Oye! That was it, 15 min before class was over my knee hurt, I wasn't haven't much fun anymore and the lady was really starting to irritate me...:)
Off to stretch I went and was joined quickly by Stephanie whose response to the class..."I didn't like that..." :) We're going to try a different class next Saturday morning. This Monday we are going to try a kick boxing class. It was one I was addicted to pre-pregnancy so I am looking forward to getting back. It kicked my butt then and I am expecting to hurt Monday night.....
I felt so accomplished to have worked out, showered and fed my daughter twice before 10am! Woo hoo! On my way to get back in shape!
