check your head

I must be addicted to endorphins. Seriously. And I need to get my head checked. Why, you ask? Because I just registered for the initial instructor training for yet another wonderful Les Mills program - BODYATTACK (as if BODYCOMBAT weren't intimidating enough, right?). What is BA? Check it out here.

BODYATTACK was the first group fitness class I ventured into in June 2008. It was the class that started my group fitness obsession. You may be wondering if I loved it so much, why wasn't it my first program for certification? Here's why - I ran out halfway through the first class and nearly puked. It was a smidge embarassing. If you checked out the typical class portion of the site, I ran out during the running track. After upper body conditioning, I was toast! I made it back during agility and lasted through the end of the class, but it was rough. Despite all that, I kept going back. Even though my ass felt literally kicked, I felt so good about myself for making it through the class. I had to take the lower intensity options for the first six-ish months I went to the class, but lately I have been able to hang with the high intensity throughout the class. Now I want to teach it. I think I'm "there" (wherever that is).

Countdown to initial training module = 38 days. Just over a month to get myself psyched up and ready to go. And add some new workout clothes to the wardrobe...
