I returned to Kick tonight.
For the first time in ohhhh, about four weeks or so.
….does four weeks ring a bell to you?
That’s just about how long I’ve been in this Core Fusion Challenge with my sis.
And wow, was tonight’s class eye-opening.
Usually I find Kick to be EXTRA challenging when in the class versus doing it at home (which is a given since there’s that competitive edge that comes out when in a class setting, afterall). And even harder if I’m teaching it (note to self: I miss teaching!!).
Well tonight’s class felt so different.
Not “easy” by any stretch. Still an ass kicker for sure. But tonight’s class? I felt stronger. Powerful. In control of my moves – especially those side kicks, roundhouse kicks and front kicks.
I totally credit two things to why Kick felt so good tonight:
1 – intervals. All those intervals I love to hate? They are amping up my endurance! High five to me!
2 – Core Fusion! A strong core? Well damn, it transformed my Kick technique incredibly. And I’m not ashamed to admit that I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror a couple times and dare I say, I looked pretty fierce. ;-)
Moral of this story? I heart Group Kick…and I *really* heart Core Fusion. It’s opened up my eyes to a whole new side of fitness I’ve been avoiding for far too long.
Do I regret that? Nah. I wasn’t ready to embrace it. But I am now. Like whoa. ;-)
