Boing ... Boing ... BOING!

... boing!

Rebounding was loads of fun last night. It was hard work and it definitely did me some good. I think it mainly works the legs, hips and waist as my thighs feel a bit heavy and tired today. That's good if that is your problem area but I would have liked a bit more for the bingo wings and tummy! I think it's the sort of class that takes a little getting used to. I didn't really feel as though I had pushed myself enough to really feel the burn like I do with my regular aerobics class but that was mainly because I was scared of falling off the trampoline LOL! Anyone who knows me well will tell you that my spatial awareness is shockingly poor so I was concerned that I might boing myself onto the floor and break a leg or something similar. That said, after a couple more classes once I am used to the size of the bouncer and the type of exercises we're supposed to be doing I reckon I could really go for it for the full 45 minutes. Also I think we learnt two important lessons for next time.

1. Don't eat soup a short while before you go to class. You will get stitch (as Jayne found out).
2. Don't sit in front of the TV with a huge mug of tea before you go. You will really, reeeeally need a wee when you start jumping up and down (as I discovered).

I reckon rebounding will definitely be a class we'd have another go at as it was really fun. In fact we're getting quite adventurous with our exercise classes now. We have a two classes for £5 offer so we might try "Express Aerobics" or "Body Sculpt" with that. I think I have even convinced Jayne to have a go at Spinning one of the days :)

I'm still happy with the way my eating has been going this week. I haven't actually written anything down again *blush* but I know I haven't over indulged. I'm going to have a go at my hula DVD this evening too so I'm feeling generally positive all round.
