I picked up a shift at work, which was during all possible work out times, so today was a bust!

On Friday's Vixen fitness only has like evening classes, and they are pretty much at the same time. So I went with a class I haven't tried before- Power Hoopz!! I though to myself, "Marisa- you can hula hoop decently, let's give this a try!"
The initial hula hooping was great- I was golden there! But then when the instructor, Margo, had us do squats while hooping, then you heard the clatter of hoops falling all over the room!! I was so confused about how to do the squat without the hoop hitting my knees, because when I leaned back in my squat, the hoop would hit my boobs! Either way- the room looked like a cemetery of fallen hoops! Margo had us alternating between different types of hooping (traditional, walking left & right as well as front & back, squatting, etc) and then strengthening, which included laying down with our legs in the air, hoop between our legs, and squeezing! My thighs were burning!! At the end of the class I felt a sharp pain in the right side of my abdomen. I think the constant hitting of the hoop on my ribcage bruised me a little. It felt like someone was stabbing me with a needle!! Not a pleasurable experience! But maybe next time I try the class it'll be easier.

I worked today, and there are no evening classes on the weekend at Vixen, so it was a rest day for me.
Sunday, August 24:
I happen to have the day off so I hit up Vixen for two classes. First up was Video Vixen. We practiced across the floor movements and worked on turns. And the dance routine was cute, sassy and fun!! I really enjoyed it!
After Video Vixen was my second dose of Intro to silks!! Ariana joined me for her first silks class at Vixen! I stayed with the beginners so I could review all of the different climbs. I think that I'll continue to stay with the beginners each time I take the class until I can do all of the climbs perfectly!!
