Ouch

The idea of going to the gym also gives me mixed feelings. Therefore, the ages it takes me to get ready, then actually the process of walking out the door...Part of me says yeh, let's do it, get those muscles toned, lose that flab that most people don't believe I have (trust me, it's there) and increase that metabolism! The other half of me dreads going in anticipation of the pain of rolling out bed the next morning.

This morning was no exception. Last night, three of us now known as Team Typhoon (don't ask!) met at our usual place at V's house where we went through the fun but painful rigors of body combat, weights, then cooling down and stretching with yoga. I think I tensed up muscles more than stretching them, when it came to yoga! Admittedly though, despite aching pecs, arms, thoracic back and legs, I'm not as ouchy as I used to be the next day...maybe I'm just fitter? Or maybe I just didn't work as hard last night? =) But whatever the case, I love the feeling afterwards of having worked out and done something for this lazy body of mine!!
