Well I started a fitness class this week on Tuesday and Thursday after a long period of medically induced inactivity. Having spent so long not being able to do a lot I decided to start off slowly and joined an aquacise class with the intention of in a month or so slowly upgrading more intense training.
So anyway I turn up for my first class get stripped off to swimming trunks - the most I will wear in water - and head to the pool, it turns out I am the only bloke in the class but that is not a issue.
After only 2 sessions under my belt now I am feeling better already, with the water supporting a proportion of my weight I find that I can do a lot more than I had thought possible meaning that my muscles are getting a better work out. I had only intended to do the aquacise until I felt fit enough to transfer entirely to the gym but now I think I will keep it up along side the gym when I feel able start in the gym. |
