Attacked by BodyAttack...

I have recently signed up for a membership at the Goodlife Gym. Thusfar it has been completely worth while. I have gone to Zumba and BodyPump, which are kinda dance oriented cardio classes. By the end of the hour, I am usually exhausted, but happy with my progress. Last night I decided to step it up a notch with Body Attack! BAM! BAD IDEA!!! I seriously thought I was going to vomit! I was having war-like flashbacks of my grade 9 football conditioning with constant running, pushups, and drills. The thing that surprised me the most was that I was in a class with like 50 middle aged women, and they were all pounding it out like pros! Its a sad, sad day when women considerably older than you can kick your butt. At first I thought I would never go back (I also thought I would never be able to walk again!), but now that I have had a chance to reflect, I have decided that instead of being a wimpy quitter that I need to go back and get my butt kicked weekly, until I can finally take my vengence and Attack BodyAttack!

  1. I once witnessed a Spin Class (which I was late for and thus couldn't participate), and thought it might have killed me. It's also humbling when ones absence in the gym results in their grade eight students running circles around them.
