Knock Out

From here on out, I will be getting off at 5:00 on Mondays and Wednesdays so I can attend the Kickboxing/BodyPower combo (from here on out known as the Knock Out). It is super difficult. Marika teaches the kickboxing class on Wednesdays and for some reason I expected it to be a little easier than Katie's class (Marika never taught Combat at Gold's) and a little more Combat like (with the deep-breathing-cool-down periods). But it wasn't. It was harder. Now the reasons it was harder could be threefold: 1) I forgot to bring a water bottle. It's hard enough to breathe in kickboxing, try not drinking. 2) I wasn't sure I was actually taking both classes, so I only packed pants to wear; I have explained the problem with pants in previous posts. 3) I was so so so sore from BodyPower on Monday. I could barely get out of my chair at work. I had told myself (and by that I mean: Erin had told me) that working out would make it feel better, but I was just worn out all around. But even though I was so exhausted after kickboxing, I made myself stay for BodyPower. It really helps that I have to pay $4 to get in. It makes you think about getting every penny worth of your workout. I just wish they had weights before cardio. Then after all that work, I went home and ate Cocoa Krispies; two bowls. What a way to celebrate!
