The morning after

Sixty minutes of TRX was grueling but I loved every minute of it. Today every muscle aches but I'm signed up to go again.Boxing on Friday. My favorite fitness instrutor always reminds us, when we start moaning and groaning, that "You are here by choice!!" Even crazier, we pay for the torture.
P.S. (You know that you are getting old when the instructor is your son's age.)

Need to get back to sweating!

My favorite fitness instructor took off for a mid winter vacation so I decided to do the same. MISTAKE!! I skipped Friday and Saturday and now I must pay the price and go to a TRX class in 30 minutes. I will certainly be kicking myself in the morning but the break was also welcomed.
