I’m still alive!!!

I haven’t posted anything on the Fat Burnin’ Friday front lately because I have been overwhelmed with life! And, honestly there isn’t much to update everyone with – I wish I could say there were. I did learn lots of new girations thanks to my Zumba class ^[1] these past few weeks :)

My weight has stayed the same and it’s completely because I haven’t made it a priority! I did try a spinning. Have you ever done it? It is the BEST workout ever! That was two weeks ago and I was going to join this week, but my schedule got the best of me. Excuses, Excuses, I know!

I am hitting the gym again hard next week. I am definitely going to officially join the spinning class. They are on Monday and Wednesday. Those are paid classes, so I won’t want to be missing those (gotta get my money’s worth and all :). I’m also going to start doing a Cardio Boot Camp Kick Boxing Class with Marianne ^[2] and maybe Lisa (did ya read this, Lisa – you are in too :). That should be fun.

I think the organized classes are a great motivator. I remember when I was in really good shape before having kids, I did organize step aerobics with alternating regular cardio on off days. It proved to have great results then, so I’m hoping it will do the same again.

I’m also going to use Friday as a running day. I feel I have lost any endurance I had built up. I think I want to try (how indifferent is that commitment) to run a Half Marathon in May next year. I wanted to do one this year and visited Mickey instead. I got up to the 8-mile run and never made it past that. That was a huge achievement for me as it was. I think I can do it again. I’m gonna try!!

So, how have your past few weeks gone? Any new exercise routines you are doing? Have you tried spinning at all? I am telling you the one class I went to, I was sweating and it was such an awesome workout. I’ve been told the instructor has a lot to do with it. The instructor we had was great, and everyone in the class was super nice too. That always helps being new at something – everyone truly welcomed me into the class!
