I tried out yoga this morning. It’s not my first time, I’ve done it before, A couple of years ago I went to this class where we were trained by candle light and I enjoyed it (specially being more fit than the bunch of models who I went with, hehe), but then I became lazy (that’s my problem right there, I have the attention span of a geriatric goldfish)
But since my doctor told me that meds I’m on for the next six months is more than likely to make me gain weight I decided to be proactive and get some exercise into my life. (and eat less than a hormonal teenager, if possible)
So starting today (knock on wood) I’m doing yoga every morning (got this beginners CD that I’m going to be trying out while I’m on waiting list for local yoga class-yes there is a waiting list) then Monday and Wednesday evenings I’m joining my brother’s girlfriend for Zumba and Tuesdays and Thursdays I’m going back to squash with the hubby.
Wish me luck because I tend to have High hopes and Low outcomes when it comes to fitness, hehe.
The yoga from this morning is already showing results, no I’m not suddenly toned and in line for a guest appearance on Bay Watch, but my calf muscles are EINA!!! so painful people. I wear flat shoes for the walk from the train in the morning,but this morning I could have been wearing stilts. It’s so sore at first I thought it was the cold that had my calves and thighs sore from the bone! but realised that putting on heels when I got to work made me feel MUCH better so recon it’s just my muscles not used to actual movement,the heels seem to be stretching it.
I’ll give an update on Friday to let you know how my “new active lifestyle” is going.
SERIOUSLY wish me luck
