Not sure where I got the great idea to go for a couple of miles run before starting out my first kickboxing class... but 7pm after 2 miles, there I was. Waiting for my first kickboxing class. HOLY CRAP is all I have to say. I seriously do not know if I will be able to lift my arms up tomorrow to wash my hair.
This class was a little intense. Only me plus 2 other women. Then 3 guys who all work there, one was the owner. I was more expecting an aerobics type class... which was NOT what it was. I am SO sore right now!
The class ended like this. With your partner (mine worked there and was sort of "assigned" to me, to help me out), one (him) had on mitts. I had on sort of gloves with padding on the knuckles, but open fingers. I had to throw 50 jabs with my right. Then 50 with my left. Then 100 with my right, then 100 with my left. Then another 50 on each side. Stop, drop and do 25 push ups. THEN... do that all over again! And after the 2nd set of 25 push ups, switch. I had on the mitts while he threw all those punches. And trust me... that is no picnic either. My arm needs tension so he has something to punch at. For 200 punches on each side.
HOLY CRAP!
And that was the END of the class!
So 2 miles before that? What was I thinking???
