This afternoon, my body decided to tell me, very obviously that, Hey sista? Ya know, swimming alone does not constitute a complete work out, u hear me?
I hear you alright, oh body of horizontally challenged mess.
I was inspired by a Take it Lying down exercise routine I read in a mag.
Just a few simple steps, but I was suspicious when it stated an hour is needed. But the benefits are fantabulous (that shows why you can't always believe what you read).
And today since its a rainy day and I can't swim, I shall attempt this seemingly easy peesy workout. I quietly admitted to myself, I need a bit more stretching and tummy toning exercise that my swimming routine is not giving me.
(And I need to get Phuket bikini ready in a month!)
10 repetitions, 3 sets each? Bah, no sweat to me.
The warning alarm went off at my very 1st set. Here's what my brain said to me:
"Gah, this is harder than I thought"
Next set:
"Ooomph, oommph, earaggh"
Reaching the middle of the program:
"Oh my lord! The mother f****** pain!"
Not even to the end:
"Take the mother f****** pain away! Stop! Stop!"
You guessed it, I didn't finish the whole program.
Ah well...there's always another day...and there's always my sweet, gentle on my tummy swimming.
I love you, pink swimsuit.

Swimming is good exercise for every muscle on the body!
Pete: Izit? Izit? Yay! Then I can ditch the bloody torturing work out and stick to my swimming regime. At least I enjoy it, and not just doing it for the sake of doing it.
Hmm...same goes for the job we do rite...
