Kickboxing
Last night, through odd reasons, I went to look at the YMCA program guide for this winter and discovered that they have kickboxing classes! This is something I have been interested in doing for quite some time. I just adored Tae-Bo, and am really excited about signing up. There is a bit of hangup because there will be other people there, but I am assuming mostly it will be other women. They will probably be much more of the “fit” type, though. That does sort of intimidate and scare me, but I will be there for me. Anyway, do not want to think about the other people to much because it will scare me out of doing it. Besides, I am much much better off now then when I started doing Tae-Bo videos and was so glad no one else was there. I am freaking forty pounds less! It is a weird thing, but especially with daily weigh-ins, it is hard to realize just how many overall pounds that is. I mean, I go through the oh okay well first 10 pounds is just water weight and then the next 10 pounds was probably due to hair cuts and trimming my nails and shaving my legs and such over a year and then another 10 pounds well I was probably bloated from my period or something but after 40 pounds it is getting increasingly hard to not just accept it heh.
Anyway, kickboxing! Woohoo! So excited. I had looked into kickboxing a few months ago but found the only place to offer it was $60/month with a maximum 4 classes a month, early hours that I would have to drastically schedule around, and was a good 35 minutes from work which is already an hour away. It, unfortunately, was just something I could not do at the time. I had been pretty pumped about the possibility but eventually had to rule it out. So to find out yesterday that the place I already go to has a weekly class that is a very reasonable price, wow! I will still have to work around it with my job but not nearly as much as the other one would have been.
If the class gives me 30% of the feeling that Tae-Bo used to leave me with, it will be awesome! Also, it will obviously help me do more because it is a set time and date, so if I miss it I know it is a wasted week and can not go again until the next week. I think this will really help me keep on track. It will encourage me to go regularly throughout the week so that I can do better and better at the class. Totally psyched!
