OW that hurts!

As I got out of bed this morning, my quads still ache! I went to a killer "core fusion" class on Friday. It fuses the disciplines of Pilates, yoga, core-conditioning and orthopedic stretching to produce long, lean muscles and a strong, flexible, youthful body. I had not been since before the holidays, and wow, I felt it! I love the feeling of an intense, thorough, time-efficient workout.

To keep progressing, it's essential to find new, challenging way to take your workout to the next level. Whether you are a beginner or the star of your gym, if your current workout feels routine or if you find yourself doing the same program over and over (i.e. OK I'll jump on my favorite elliptical for 30 minutes, then I'll go do my favorite weight sequence), it's time to shake things up. Make it fun! The core fusion class is a specialty class only offered at a spa across town. Is it convenient? No. But, it's cool to occasioanlly check out new places, meet new people, and progress your workout. It's all part of the journey to achieve our personal best. Treat yourself to new workout experiences - it's an incredible mind/body lift.
