get back up again

Audio Adrenalin has a neat song that goes "I get down, I get back up, I get down, I get back up again..."

That's how life is sometimes. And here to illustrate that concept is yours truly, attempting once again the bird in flight pose from the yoga section of my Body Flow class. By the way, this is not easy. I may have had the pose for a split second or two, but doing this alone with the 10-second timer on my camera, it also wasn't easy to have the pose ready, on cue, right when those 10 seconds were up and the camera flashed!

oh well, one day I will have this down sooo well, I'll be able to sit in this position through breakfast, lunch and dinner. Just give me a plate of birdseed and I'll peck away. ha.

Also wanted to say, I tried Body Pump for the first time today, which meant I did 2 classes in a row! Body Pump was first, thankfully, followed by the more relaxing, stretching Body Flow. Here's a little description of Body Pump and some photos..

ok I sorta lied. Couldn't copy-paste the description, just the url, so click if you're interested. Basically it's a low-weight, high-rep barbell workout. Can't believe I've gone this far in life without ever working out with a barbell before!

This was fun, a good hard muscle workout, loved the power lifts, but not nearly as much fun and intense as Body Combat! I'll still be doing that one on Thursdays.

Next thing to try is Power Yoga...yoga class with a little extra "oomph". In the meantime, I'll still be working on that bird pose, I am determined to get it yet!!
