Day 3 of returning back to the workout world.
I get bored with working out so I have to keep things spicy. Yesterday as I was doing my 15 minutes on the treadmill (after the 15 minutes on the elliptical), I looked down to see the racquetball courts (my gym is 2 levels). I thought to myself "mmmm, I remember doing that in college and it being kind of fun." So I made it a goal today to bounce that little ball around in the little room (after I sent Jeff to WalMart to get me a racquetball racquet last night!).
My last memory of me playing racquetball in college was slamming myself in the wall (several times - did I say it was "fun"!?) to get to the ball. Hey - it's a small room... you get that momentum going and it's hard to stop yourself! Maybe that's part of the exercise. Anyway... I digress.
So I was little nervous to get in there knowing that the WHOLE (LA Fitness workout) WORLD could see me. Do they really have to have a floor to ceiling glass wall there facing the workout floor?
But I just walked in like I knew EXACTLY (ha ha!) what I was doing (own it!) and hit the ball around. It is quite the workout!!! After 10 minutes that heart was A-PUMPIN'!!!! I managed to make it 20 minutes and was satisfied. And hey - it left me a few extra minutes this morning to write this post!!!
