Workkin' Out! - Page 4

Sundae · 10-10-2007, 11:08 AM

Line dancing yesterday - 90 mins of seeing my fat red balloon face bob about behind all the dear little old ladies. Still - every time I do it I tell myself I will sweat less next time... It may only be a tiny amount less, but if I'm sweating it's working, right? One of the songs we danced to was Copperhead Road by Steve Earl - too cool! Shame it was a hard dance with lots of turns so I barely heard the song

Water Workout today - oh my word I LOVED it!
I have no doubt it will hurt like buggery tomorrow - I could feel it working even as I was doing it. I think I should go twice a week as it's something I enjoy.

Yoga tomorrow. Bleurgh. Still, it's with Bernadette again, so my only issues will be with my own body. I did have a sneaky thought that now I had an exercise I enjoy I could give up yoga, but then realised the very fact I have trouble with yoga and not with Water Workout means they are both necessary. Anyway, I can't give something up just because it's hard - I'm a procrastinator not a quitter.

SG - thats the thing about Water Aerobics....you *shouldnt* feel it tomorrow and if you are stiff from other activities....it will work them out.

I love water aerobics.

I am not working out because I am drowning in my own snot and can hardly breathe

Sundae · 10-11-2007, 01:56 PM

'm not really feeling it, woohoo!

Yoga was better today - I'm sticking with Bernadette for the time being.
I came out of it feeling quite peculiar - as if my legs had been put on backwards. So I went for a walk for another hour - not bad.

I've also booked in for my gym induction, even though I only intend to use the CV room. Well the weather is on the turn and it's good to know I'll have somewhere to walk in the dry.

And you plan on getting laid this weekend? Snot does not equal sexy.

It isn't sexy (to me) but it could be great exercise:

[Advertising voice]
Yes! Snot-aerobics! Now at a special snot-pool in a gym near you!
The higher viscosity of the snot means more resistance, more support, and a better workout. And the wholesome organic goodness of the snot will enrich your skin with essential vitamins and nutrients, maintaining your skin's natural balance and leaving it looking younger and silky-smooth!

(pardon me while I go and

)

Turns out today is the day I feel like I've been beaten with a big dirty stick.
Something about yoga - despite its benign appearance and the intensive stretching we do, it makes me ache like buggery the next day.

Ouchie.
Water Workout on Monday, Line Dancing on Tuesday and then probably Yoya on Wednesday - induction Thursday then we're back to where we started. Scary having the week planned out ahead!
