Tuesday night is Power Toning. I've taken a toning class at Lafayette before and it was torture. Maybe it was the instructor. Or maybe it was because it was inside. Or maybe because everyone in the class was a minus zero in size. Anyway you look at it, this was better.
The instructor was nice. She demonstrated every move and showed adaptions for the physically less fit. I still couldn't do them but it was nice. There were skinny girls but about half were plus size. It was outside. With a breeze. I took my dumbbells but they provided mats. I should have taken my yoga mat.
I did everything, but just less of them, with all the adaptions and then some. Not nearly as high or straight but done. I worked up a good sweat. Might go back again. I confirmed that my muscles are all sleeping and need to be woken the heck up. How do you do that? Squats are out of the question. Even pliés hurt. My knees were singing tonight!
Almost all the skinny girls take the other classes. Monday night is Boot Camp (Todays tip: Take a towel if you don't want to work out on the grass!). It sounds like Hell. Wednesday is Yoga. From the way they were talking it isn't beginners. Better skip that one. I can stand an hour in Hell. Have you met my roommate?
Still looking for more ideas. If you've got them, let me know.
