It was yesterday. It was Tuff-E-Nuff. It was a fairly small class, possibly only 30 people.
I performed like a champ. I didn't get the shortness of breath and I only got the heavy legs during the sprints — well, I always was the slowest runner in elementary school. I wonder if it was due to my spicy roll for lunch (carbs plus fish protein) or the diet Pepsi (caffeine) which did not, sadly, turn out to have an iTunes voucher.
Anyway, Mark seems to love plyometric exercises. I think it has something to do with volunteer coaching high school football. So there was one exercise where we had to jump across the mats in the cardio circuit. I discovered I could stand to work on my jumping muscles. Also in the cardio circuit: bench climbing, jump roping and thumping a basketball on the floor and then boosting it over your head over and over as fast as possible. I even jumped a little while I did it for an extra boost.
Woke up stiff in the shoulders and achy in the calves. I'm going to invest in some knee bracey things; they've been bugging me. Denise and Mark must have joints made of iron. And muscles made of iron. And wills made of iron.
Oh yeah, you might have noticed I had sushi for lunch. That means I bought it since there is no way I'm making my own. I will likely buy lunch today as well, but it will be under $5. For real. I don't have much to eat around here, and I think I have been doing pretty good, anyway. Or I'll take a ramen to work.
Also, encountered a dilemma of a cheapskate cleanfreak — is it worth paying nearly $8 for 10 swiffer duster refills? Should I give up the ghost on a sock or two? Will that be as much fun as the special swiffer duster?
