For some reason I was exhausted today. I didn't do anything different than I usually do but I noticed that some of my colleagues also complained of the same lack of energy. I tried to get all my friends at work to come with me but I could only convince my best girl friend at work to come. "I'll try it, but I have never done yoga or pilates before," she tried to talk her way out of coming with that line, like she thought it would work. When i started I had never done pilates or yoga before either, "you've got to start somewhere" I told her. I gave her the listen to your body speech as we walked in and rode up the elevator. If I had been alone I probably would have taken Angela's athletic yoga class... I guess I wouldn't have because for fun I poked my head in to see who was going to take it and not only was the lobby filled with people, the cozy studio was filled with people as well. I don't know if i could have kept up with them anyway, they looked buff and beautiful just like the video. Once sarah's class was over, the 50 people there filed into the studio and then Joschi put us to work.
My friend loved it! As we walked out she kept saying how she felt muscles she didn't even know she had. I hope to get her to do the 40 day challenge but I think she has commitment issues. Of course tons of excuses tumbled out of her mouth, but I can tell she is really thinking hard about changing her life. For the first time ever I think she really made a connection to her body. I'll give her a day and ask her again tomorrow how she feels. You never know we may have another Joschi-ite on the 40 day challenge team...
