Oh, the pain and agony
I started taking a body sculpting class at the Y last week. We did, what felt like, 100 or more Iron Mike’s- which are lunges with a barbell and weights being held high on your shoulders. We did a million variations on those too. Some were on a step, some were on the floor, some were half on the step and on the floor. Woot!
Today’s lesson in “How to create the most incredible pain imaginable” class we focused on the arms. Oh joy! The arms! My favorite! Again, we did so many different torturous things I can’t even describe it to you, but when I went to hold the blow dryer over my head after my shower, my arm was trembling! I am going to be SO SORE tomorrow that it will not even be funny. No pain, no gain? We’ll I had better wake up looking like Marilyn Monroe tomorrow, that’s all I have to say!
The cartoon is done by none other than Mollywalk. Take a peek over at her wonderful cartoon blog — she’s incredible!
Wouldn’t it be lovely if we could take our fat and just roll it around under our skin to where we wanted it? No cutting involved, just relocation.
Breast augmentation, or if we’re already doing well there, roll it down to the bottoms of our feet to make ourselves taller! Or roll some up on the top of our head if our hair is flat today. Or take our breasts and store them on our backs (only temporarily) while doing Tae Kwon Do or shooting pool…..
And why did God make it painful to get INTO shape, instead of the other way around?
Mamaworecombatboots~wonderful wishes there! Claire, sounds as if the instructor is working you guys hard. Upper body is tough, and then trying to use those very sore arms the next day is even tougher! You go girl!
mamawore — you have me cracking me up! I just love your ideas, and if there were some way to sign up for that design I would do it in a minute! :)
Cathy — I love the instructor. She is tough! We were doing push-ups yesterday and she kept saying “Put those butts down, ladies!” lol I told Bryan that I swear she has been a drill Sgt in the past!
