I have achieved something this week.......

Morning bloggers and I hope you are well. This week I am pleased with myself as I have achieved something, I have finally bit the bullet and gone to an exercise class. I have been toying with the idea for a long time as I am a bit of a ponderer and decided to take decisive action and go. Where I live the council with the NHS have some free activities each week to encourage healthy living. There are a few classes but times & locations don't always align with my timetable so I found that the Zumba class would be most convenient for me. Now I was unsure before I went along ; would I keep up ? would I be the biggest there ? would I be unco-ordinated ? would I be wrecked afterwards ? The answer to those questions really surprised me as it was NO. Obviously I did not know all of the moves so if I was out of sync at any time I just marched through it until I could catch up , but I did manage the whole session without lying down or sitting out!! Afterwards I didn't feel too bad either. It was a really hot day and I took plenty of chilled water with me that came in very useful. I have felt achy over the day or two since the class but on the whole I enjoyed it and felt slightly empowered by going. I do intend to go again as I want to be fitter and healthier and if slimmer comes into it then all the better.
