Recently, I got the bright idea to get back into correct exercise.
- Okay, I guess I have to confess that I am not a lady who has been into exercise my whole life.
In fact, I despise exercise. There were a few years that I respectfully exercised at a local gym. The nurse advised that I go there to take workout classes or utilize the services of a personal trainer. Well, the health & wellness center, as it is called, does supply three free lessons with a personal trainer, although I never honestly took them. They also have about 5 million unusual workout classes, although I never took those either. In fact, the only thing I did at the local gym my nurse advised was swim & do water aerobics. Swimming was way better than the water-based workout classes, but periodically there wasn’t a single lap lane available in the pool. I hated it when that happened, but if it happened to be the right time, I would go ahead & take the workout classes in the other pool. I am sure my nurse wanted me to go get my heart rate up while some cutesy twenty-year-old jumped around with her ponytail flying, but workout classes just aren’t my thing, but first of all, I am an introvert. I don’t get more energy by being around crowds; my energy is drained. Who needs drained energy while I am in workout classes? That is counter-productive. Secondly, I am old & fat. I do not love bouncing around in workout classes & hitting myself in the face with my boobs. Thirdly, I have arthritis. Workout classes hurt! I will join the gym again, although I will just swim.
