So I do not make New Year’s Resolutions, but so far this year I have made a greater commitment to fitness. Looking back on some pictures from the past decade I realized I am HUGE I am not at fit as I once was. I think it has been a slow progression of me being a lazy bum me getting married and still being in school. There are simply not enough hours in the day. Yoga is my exercise of choice, but the class I like to go to is on the days I have school. This past semester I worked out sporadically but now I am making a commitment to faithfully attend a step aerobics class at the Y. Yesterday was the first time I had been to the class since before Drew and I got married. It helps that my boss Marla teaches the class, because she will keep me accountable.
I didn’t do so bad yesterday. I thought I was going to die a few times, but I didn’t and once I was done I felt really accomplished. Today I still feel accomplished, but I also feel incredibly sore (ie. like an 85 year old woman with arthritis). It is amazing the muscles that you discover after you work out. Things you didn’t know could feel sore suddenly scream at you asking “Why are you doing this to me?”
Tomorrow I go back to class…let’s hope I live to blog another day.
