I'm whipping up this post before tonight's class, and I'm excited to go. I had kinda a drab Monday and could really use it. You see, if I'm tired or in a bad mood before class, I still go and then VOILA! I'm energized and happy.
Some might say the same thing about working out in general, but that's not always true for me. I can enter the gym for a treadmill-and-weights workout and exit with the same crappy mood. Kickboxing's different. It doesn't feel like a workout! Well, my muscles would beg to differ, but what I mean is that it's so fun you don't dread it.
Do you have a particular workout about which you feel the same way? Hollaback and maybe I'll give that a shot, too. Any exercise that puts me in a good mood and doesn't feel like work is A-OK in my book.

ReplyDeleteI'm so proud of you!!!
ReplyDeleteLove to you! :)
OMG pick me up on the way to D&B! i totally want a paraffin hand wax and to win a free month of kick boxing! and then you have to come to yoga with me! it doesn't generally pump me up, but i feel very relax and happy after.
ReplyDeleteI want to find a kickboxing class near me so bad but I can't!
ReplyDeleteI have to admit, as I was reading I thought you were going to say you are going to start teaching a kickboxing class. You'd rock it!
I miss kickboxing.. The gym here in Germany doesn't off it but they do have Zumba classes.Love it and if you have a really good teacher like I do you can take the moves to the dance floor!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a super fun event.
ReplyDeleteMy class is yoga. Sometimes I dread it, usually I look forward to it, always I leave feeling a lot better than when I came in.

i'm hella jealous. i'd love to come, but it's a tad too far...
ReplyDeleteso glad you've discovered a passion for kickboxing -- sounds like you're having a blast & kicking some major fat cells to the curb!
Okay, you'll get a kick out of this...
ReplyDeleteIf my sit off ends in a loss and I MUST go, I do a fake wrap up and washing of the hands (complete with turning on water and pulling paper towels) and then I head down to the 2nd floor.
The 2nd floor has a suite where they place blind people with seeing eye dogs, so there are a number of blind people on that floor.
So I figure, why not go there, chances are they'd never know who I was anyway cause they can't see me!
.... I'm terrible, I know!
Sounds awesome! Too bad my Saturday is already packed full AND I live in the complete opposite end of the metro (Shakopee) or I would be there...would love to try out kung-fu someday! :)
