Oh the shame...

Like I had mentioned in previous posts, in order to try and reach my goal, I started going to the gym. The plan is to go 3 times a week (Mon, Wed, and Fri) and if I ever have free time... which I never do... so we'll stick to 3 times a week.
Anyway, yesterday, I decided to change it up and join an aerobics class. It's important not to get bored with your exercise routine or else you will stop going. And that goes double for me because I get bored really easily. So I joined a class called "Hashiranai Aero" (which means aerobics without running). I have always believed myself to be fairly coordinated. I need coordination to do judo after all. But boy was I wrong. I must have slept in the day they were passing out coordination... because it was embarrassing. I spent 45 minutes standing in the corner and spinning around in circles because I had no idea what I was doing. Granted this was my first time ever doing aerobics but it doesn't look that hard when I watch from the window... It's a good thing that I can laugh at myself because otherwise I'd never set foot in the gym again.
So after 45 minutes of shame, I refused to go home on that note. Instead, I decided to stay for the beginner aerobics class that was being held immediately after. I didn't feel like I had worked out anyway because all I had done was make mistakes... The beginner class went much better... I still feel like I have no coordination but it was still fun.

Lesson of the day: Hang in there... even when everything goes wrong
