So I went to Zumba. The verdict: it is supercharged and it was rather fun. However, I am pleased to report that it isn't as supercharged as Spinning. A little more coordination is required but from a I want to die because this exercise class is so hard perspective, Spinning wins. Any exercise routine that leaves bruises will always win hands down (see http://1974haze.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/death-by-zumba-part-1.html here).
There was much shouting and whooping at Zumba. I didn't whoop. I never whoop. I did, however, fight my way through every routine. Towards the end, my legs interfered with my enthusiasm because they were, as they are now, aching a lot. Thus exercise routines penultimate and ultimate were walked through rather than bounced through. Leg pain, post-exercise, I'm given to understand, is a good thing. Doesn't feel particularly good though.
LMFAO's 'I'm sexy and I know it' was one of the latter tracks used by the instructor. Despite a beaming red face, crap leggings and large amounts of sweat, for about 10 seconds I did feel sexy. In my mind, I was like yeah, check out my sexy Zumba moves. Then some poor foot coordination and the imagined mirror image of me prancing around like a red faced idiot stepped in and wiped out all thoughts of alluring, fantasy me.
Maybe after a few months of Zumba, I'll sing 'I'm sexy and I know it' and mean it.
An insight into the workings of my mind. You have been warned ;-) Here you will find my musings on various matters. From the profound to the ridiculous: seemingly disparate elements yet often found to be two sides of the same coin. Notable recent thoughts are mostly about personal growth and Astrology.
