Kicking It!

Second class - in the bag! And with my bud, Jess, to boot.

It was a bit easier this time. We didn't have any running this time and I modified things to work better for me. I think it was just too much for my size last time, so I just need to take it a little slower, but still kick it!

Since we last spoke, I accepted a job as the clerk for the Planning Board in town. I'm looking forward to some time doing grown-up things and making a little cash.

Until next week..... KICK!

Kickboxing (aka Ass Whoopin')

I had my first kickboxing tonight. It was so hard - harder than anything else I've ever done in my life. Even harder than delivering Miss Mayhem!


It's at an MMA studio, so it's a lot tougher than a cardio kickboxing class that you'd take at a gym. It's taught by MMA fighters/instructors and they kick your arse for an hour straight! Boxing gloves, pads and everything!


I almost quit halfway through the class - it was that hard. But I took a few minutes to give myself a pep talk and catch my breath and went back to it. I had to keep taking quick breaks, but I kept going and finished the class by doing push-ups!


I have 9 classes left (I bought a 10-class Groupon). Old Lindsay would just quit and say it's too hard. But I'm making a commitment to myself - and telling you guys so that I have someone to hold me accountable - that I'm going to finish the rest of the classes! 


2012 is The Year of Lindsay and this is one of the things I'm committed to doing this year!
