Workout

So yesterday after work I went to the Student Rec Center to take an aerobic kickboxing class. I got there early and there was a 20 minute abs class that was about to start, so I just decided to do that one also. I haven't taken worked out in at least a year, so I was worried about how I would hold up. I made it through the abs class pretty well, although I felt I wouldn't have been able to take more than 20 minutes of it.

The kickboxing class started a few minutes after abs and it was taught by the same person. I knew it was going to be hard, but I really wasn't expecting what I went through. It was super intense! Every time I thought we were going to stop and start to cool down we kept doing more and adding on to what we had done. I think I worked harder in that class than in any other I've taken there. I definitely sweat more than I did, although not as much as Larry Shyatt does. It was a really really great class. Although I was worn out, I felt really good afterward. I hope to go back and do it every week. I like being able to see improvements I make as weeks go by. If anyone would like to join me, I'd highly recommend going to kickboxing with Lindsay at racquet club.

I thought I'd be exceedingly sore today after the intense workout yesterday. I do feel sore, but it's definitely not as much as I thought. I feel a little sore all over, but the main spot is in my ankles. It's worth it, though.
