What I have found out...

I have not ever been one to knock something before I try it...so I did just that! I have been reporting about my fantastic voyage at 24hr fitness and some of the local morning classes, but there is one thing that I have found out...I AM NOT MADE FOR THE BOUNCING OF AEROBICS! I love the class but my coordination for some of the movement is WAY off! Also the chin splits and fractured I carry from my military days do not make it any easier! So why it may be cool for some it is not for me! I will find other ways to increase my cardio! For now my aqua classes are paying off. However, I will go back to my elliptical training, treadmill training, and basket ball drills! I also think that I will add some roller skating! Was always my fave as a kid, and still my ultimate dream as an adult!!

Love all that are reading and hope that you find inspiration through my testimony!

Turbo Kick Boxing

Turbo kick boxing is not for the beginers! I am just being honest with you! It whooped my ass! OMG! O I was fucking through with it within the 1st five minutes! However, I stuck in there! I kicked when I cold jumped when I could! I squated and prayed to get up and got up and prayed to squat! I know that one day I will go back in there and conquer that class, but until then...well I am keeping my big ass in the pool and circuit training! I do enough of that other bull with all the DVD's that I have at home! I would rather do my "Flirty Girl Fitness" workout than TKB! It is much more my speed, I feel the muscles and the aches after, and it is fun! I feel like HEEEEEEEEAAAAAYYYYY! LMAO! I will have to recommend that to anyone who likes to dance and wants to loose a few inches of jiggle!

1st Aqua Class

Well, today I went to the gym I had feared for so long. It was the 24hr Fitness with EVERYTHING! Basketball court, full gym facilities, classroom, pool, whirlpool, dry sauna and steam room!

Well I have always wanted to try the aqua classes, and for over a year I was like...uh no way! Synchronized swimming are for old ladies not divas! Besides I want to really work out, you know! I bust sweats with treadmills and elliptical! I make muscles sore with pounding weights! Not an aqua aerobics class! Well YES! I did! I did an aqua aerobics class and it was AWESOME! I am so glad that I did it! For one reason it was very good using my own body as resistance with no stress on the joints. Another reason is that being around the women that were there was the best! These woman were well past their 50's and they were still trucking! Hell, honestly it was hard to keep up with some of them. One in particular I can not wait to see at the next class, she helped me out so much! I was so out of sorts! But once I was engaged and using my core I was on it! However, I was off balance enough twice to land face first in the pool! Yeah, it was hilarious! I just needed to find my center of gravity while sitting and floating at the same time, but splat! There I went!

I honestly have not felt better after a work out! I know I will go back and sweat it out again in the pool of fitness! Yes, you can sweat while doing an hour of aqua aerobics! I can not wait...and then a soak in the whirlpool with a trip to the dry sauna! I am so loving it!
