Lunch-hour Circuit Class

The boxercise class I tried out last Friday lunch was quite bearable, so I thought I'd give today's circuit class a go. OMG, it's painful! How my shoulders, arms and legs ache! Having never taken part in a circuit class, I had no idea what torture I was in for.

Warm up was 5 minutes on the exercise bike, then some push ups, followed by those weight machines which I didn't know how to use until today. Even 1 minute per machine was torturous, especially the ones that work the upper body. Even using the lightest weights possible, I couldn't keep up on the first rotation let alone on the second.

Immediately the class, my arms were like jelly. Geez I'm weak. But it actually feels like I've done some exercise. Should I try pilates on Wednesday or should I wait till next week?

In any case, I think I'll book myself in for a 10-minute massage tomorrow.^^
