Week 1 (version 2) started on December 3, and it has not gone well.
I started getting a cold/flu on Monday, but went to the first class anyway. Wow...it really sucked. Not sure how much of the suckitude was due to the oncoming illness or my declining fitness... I forgot how much cardio is in the first month. There was a lot of wheezing going on. Oh, and a little barfing too. Yay!
So, I missed class on Wednesday and Thursday due to achy, stuffy, headachy business. And then I missed this morning (Monday of Week 2) purely due to oversleeping. This is terrible! Never missed a class for this reason before. Shame on me.
So, I haven't improved my attitude any, it's pretty clear. Still have thoughts of "I hate this. I hate this. I hate this," running through my head. I'm seriously going to have to force myself into mental conversations along the lines of "You can do it. You can do it!" I'm sure this would make a difference in my workouts - there have probably been a million studies proving mind-over-matter.
On Friday, after a hella-bunch of ab work, I was laying on the mat dying/recovering. I said to Troy, "Troy, I'm dead." Well, someone in the boot camp group behind me pipes up, "You're not dead! You're only half dead." Well, I'm a little ashamed to say my first thought was, "You shut the hell up, back there! You don't know!"
Also, I've renamed "burpees" barfees.
