You Can Totally Make Fun of Me If You Want
Guess what is making running super duper cool! I downloaded this Runkeeper app to my sexy new phone and it is the shit (sidebar for Kristin: I downloaded it to mah Drizzle and it is the shizzy!! Rocking my face off!! Like, oh my god!!) I was hoping there was a widget I could add to my sidebar so I would be totally shamed into a consistently strong showing, but it only seems to put up the map, not the activity stats. Maybe I have to play with it a little more.
On to making fun of me! This morning I did something I haven't done in about a decade: I went to a Body Pump class.
I KNOW, right?
It's just that I have no desire to ever diet myself crazy or count protein grams or focus on squatting 225 lbs again in my whole life. I did it, it was cool, I loved it at the time. Now I just want to be fit and lean and healthy. And occasionally eat pizza. I certainly don't want any more muscle mass, but I obviously want to continue strength training. I still love lifting, but doing bodybuilding type splits without pushing as heavy as possible? Wha? I don't really enjoy that.
So this morning I showed up at the gym for the 5:45 am Body Pump class and I got a damn good workout in! I was sweating, it was challenging, and I guarantee that I'll be sore tomorrow. Can't ask for much more than that. Also? The female instructor had a rockin' body. Bonus!
It's not that this is the end of my days in the weight room, but at least I'm mixing it up a bit. If I do Body Pump once or twice a week, then I'll round out my strength workouts with some Turbulence Training supersets or P90X workouts.
Or, fuck it, maybe I'll just step into the squat rack and load up as many plates as I can.
