The Do You Work Out Zone

[Gemme]

Turbo Kickboxing was not all that I had hoped it would be, unfortunately. Some of it had nothing to do with the class or instructor though. My gym is redoing their siding and the sounds from the construction overrode the mike and instructor so the music kept getting turned up but her mouth set kept going out. Blech. Annoying, but not a deal breaker.

Next week, the construction won't be going on right outside the gym and, hopefully, they will have picked a better headset to call the changes through.

I did, however, burn about 400 calories, even with the stopping and starting due to the sound system and just awkwardness in general. This was the instructor's very first time teaching a class, so it was an experience for all of us. Now, if I can just get the lady in front of me to understand what the words 'mirror my movements' means, I'll be set. She kept throwing me off because I'm aerobically ADD like that.

All in all, I do have hope for it and I got some good laughs looking at everyone muddle around. I'm sure I looked awkward too, but there were no mirrors so I couldn't see how bad I looked.

I finished up the day with another half an hour in the cardio room. Good times!
