Pilates, Strong Women

On Monday I took a Pilates class for the first time. It was called Essential Pilates and was a beginner class. Boy, that shit is HARD, even before adding the props that make it more challenging. It felt to me like an athletic form of yoga. I liked it and plan to go again.
Tuesday I walked for about an hour, even though the weather was pretty abysmal. It all depends on your mood and your raingear. I was cheerful at the end.
Wednesday I went to Strong Women and then did my stretch routine on the ball. Very pleasant. This time was actually harder than last time, with the 7.5 pound weights. Well, I'm sure I will get used to them. Now I can do most of the crunches and balance excercises without collapsing, which makes me feel proud.
I wish the gym was open today. I would have been there. I would be there right now. But it's not. I will be there tomorrow early.
This afternoon I posted a personal ad in "strictly platonic" for a gym buddy. I hope I can find one! Surely Healthworks members use Craigslist too?
