WE TRIED IT: Working out isnt so boring anymore
The beginning of the school year is always very stressful. When I get home from school, I’m swamped with homework and I never have any time to relax. Of course, everyone has her own way to relieve stress, but what’s mine?
For the past few weeks, I have been trying to find new fun ways to get rid of stress. I used to love to go to the gym, but now it’s almost my enemy. Not for long….
Recently, I discovered the cardio classes at my gym. I’ve seen the classes in session, but I have always been too nervous to take one. As the minutes on the treadmill kept growing longer and the celebrity gossip wasn’t changing in any of the magazines, I decided to step out and take a class. I am so glad that I did because it was awesome.
I tried out three classes, but my fave was Body Attack. Throughout the entire 60 minutes, we are always active, running or doing aerobic exercises. Breaking a sweat is guaranteed because you are constantly on the move. It may sound intimidating at first, but it’s all about the cardio.
I took classes at a local gym, but they are offered all over the country (check out lesmills.com for locations). Lotsa health clubs offer a free day pass (or week!) if you ask.
Not only are these classes a great workout, they were so much fun! At first I was definitely afraid to get outta my comfort zone, but I am so glad I did. If they are as fun as mine, you won’t ever have to worry about the treadmill again.
