Momma's New Groove

I've been searching for a new exercise routine lately. I usually stick to one or two things for a couple years and then I get bored with it and want to do something different. My latest favorites have been the big stair machine and a weight lifting class that I alternate between. I'm just about sick to death of both of them. I've been considering taking some spin classes but they're aren't very many offered and I haven't been able to fit one into my schedule. Then last night I wandered into an aerobics class. I only had 15 minutes before my kids were done with their swim lessons so I needed to get moving quick. I've been avoiding aerobics classes lately since I have gained so much weight and I can't stand to look at myself in those big mirrors. I decided I'd jump in for a few minutes and see how it went. It was so much fun! As long as I avoided eye/body contact in the mirror I was fine and I got a great workout in only 15 minutes. In the old days I could do the whole class but now I have something to work up to. I'm feeling so positive I might even be able to endure a weight lifting class tonight!
