I've been extremely busy lately. With school, work, homework, lesson planning for work, and sleep, I don't find much time to exercise outside of my aerobic dance class twice a week. To be honest, I feel really terrible when I don't get to work out much. I feel flabby and lazy. Nothing makes me feel better and like I've done something worthwhile more than a good hard work out where I get really sweaty!
When I woke up this morning the last thing I wanted to do was get out of bed. However, after a short but furious internal argument with my lazy and active sides, I found myself in the car on the way to 24 Hour Fitness. I usually attend the 10 am yoga class there. It's been awhile since I've been though. After this class was over there was a HUGE crowd of girls waiting to get into the group exercise room. With a crowd that large, I couldn't help but wonder what this next class was and why it seemed to be so popular. I'm all about joining the latest trends, and all these girls must have found something I hadn't yet. That's how I discovered Zumba. I already knew what it was of course, but I had never really given it much thought as a realistic cardio exercise option.
Let me proclaim that Latin inspired cardio dance routines are an excellent option. I definitely feel as if I got a work out, it's basically an hour long dance party, it was fun, and the time went by super quick! Because despite the fact I enjoy yoga, the one hour class seems to take fooooooorrrever. Zumba was over before I knew it, and best of all?
I got really sweaty!
I've heard of Zumba before, but was hesitant! I may just have to try this now!
