Sore body

Jun 16, 2006 07:22

I tried something last night I never thought I would be able to do. Adult gymnastics. And no it's not kinky or anything. My friend Helen, who does more classes in different things than most people I know do, while she was working at Marathon was telling me all about it. You pay $40 a month and can go a couple times a week. You warm up for about 30 minutes doing all sorts of stretches, cartwheels, walkovers, yoga-ish type things, then you get to go over to the long trampolines and try your hand at flip-flops, flips, etc.

My body has been stretched in ways I never knew it was able to. I could do some of the stuff from my past experience in karate and having a trampoline for about 10 years when I was younger, but damn. Last night was so much fun. It is a full fledged gymnastics place. And after the other kids leave, it's open workout. Which means, you can do parallel bars, pommel horse, rings, etc. I hooked myself up to a harness and was trying back flips on those olympic style trampolines (WAY more bouncy than the black ones).

My body is sore this morning, not quite walking like a penguin, but it's close. So, I am going again, and again. This was too much fun to not do it again.

Let me know if you are interested in finding out more.
