3 Times this week

I made it to the gym, 3 times this week. Mostly because Alex had to work late all week, I needed to get out of the house, and the gym watches my kids. So, I took Zumba, Body Flow and Zumba again. I started watching myself in the mirror, since I kind am getting used to how the class goes. Latin hip movements do not come naturally to me, as I saw as I watched myself in the mirror. But, I'm not the only one, as I peered around the room.

There are a group of ladies that stand in the front and center and seem to anticipate the instructor's movements and never fall behind. Me?! I was next to a 60 year old and behind a 70 or 80 year old. So, I looked pretty good :) But again, when it came time to cool down, one of the Zumba groupies decided to continue to Zumba while we all stretched. She did manage to encourage another groupie to join her, but it was a bit crazy. But then again, Zumba does make you do things you might not normally do. And what's up with that? Why is it that in a group, women will do almost anything, even if it means hip dancing, bum spanking and shimmying your shoulders in a glass enclosed room? You'd never see men do that. but then again, men would walk around a locker room in nothing but their birthday suit and I don't us women have a tendency to do that? I couldn't bribe Alex enough to take this class. A full hour of embarassment?? Not a chance.
