Day 7: Second Time in SheFighter

Hi there!

Yesterday I went to SheFighter for a second time. I felt kind of uncertain at the beginning, before the class, but I later forgot about that. I signed up yesterday, officially. My friends and I took 2 classes after each other. In the first one we learned a few new moves, and in between each new move there were some short exercises like push-ups, sit-ups, and burpees (a military move!). After it finished, I still felt very energetic, so I decided to do the second class. However, halfway through, my body was overwhelmed, so I had to sit down for about 15 minutes, before I joined the class again. 

When I woke up today, I realized that my thighs were aching, and they hurt every time I move, so I decided not to join my friends for today's class, because I feel exhausted. On the other hand, I am planning to go tomorrow or on Wednesday.Wish me luck!

Day 4: SheFighter

Hi there! 

So today I went to the opthamologist (eye doctor) for my sister and dad. Then we went to a car studio, and then a curtain shop, while listening to the Disney movie Frozen's soundtrack five hundred billion times. Later on at 5:30, after lunch of course, I went to SheFighter with a couple of friends of mine and tried out one of their classes, and my body was pushed to the very extreme.

We started out with running 5 laps around the studio, then we did 35 jumping jacks (although we should've done 50 *sneaky, sneaky*). After that a trainer showed us some kickboxing moves, and then we did 15 push ups and 30 sit ups. This routine was repeated about 3 times, while the trainers added a few moves with each set. At the very end, we had to balance our bodies on our elbows for a minute, and we finished it all off with stretching (despite popular belief, it's better to stretch after or during a workout. There must be a reason for that but I am exhausted from writing up two posts, so you should research it instead.). 

In conclusion, it was a very tiring and exhausting experience, but I did enjoy it a lot, and I felt very productive doing it. Therefore, I am planning to sign up for lessons later on, hopefully with my friends, but even if they don't, I definitely will.
