Yikes...I can barley lift my arms enough to reach the keyboard, let alone hold them there to type this out! I had my first class at the community centre this morning, it's called "Long and Strong" and basically it's an hour of non-stop aerobics, mixed with tonnes of weights, stretchy bands and balance balls - not one muscle left un-touched. I have never done so many push-ups in my life...no wait, never attempted to do so many push-ups in my life. I pretty much took the easy route the whole class, but even that was almost too much for me. Thank God I'm doing this now and not when I'm older...the whole class I was thinking, "if I can't hold these 5lb weights, how the hell am I going to hold my own baby". Like I said, thank God. I did however, feel incredibly out of place being the youngest by far, the weakest out of all of them, and the only one that didn't have kids. But I can't wait to go back next week!
So after the class, I took my ruined and shaky body to get the most delicious London Fog Latte I've ever had. And I've never deserved it more...although I felt like the biggest idiot trying to figure out how to use my arms and legs again after they'd been brutalized like that. But I feel great!! I know that as the day passes I will be increasingly more unable to move certain muscles in my body, and by tomorrow I'm fairly certain that I will be a log and bed ridden. But it's well worth it.
