Wow! Today, I got my first boxing lesson! How cool is that?? So it's Monday, and a typical work day's end, and time to head to the gym. Being Monday, I'm always a little ... blah about working out, mostly ready to slog through my routine and get home, cuz that's how Mondays are. All changed and ready, I hop on the treadmill and get going.
I was only a few minutes into it when a young guy comes over and introduces himself (and right now, my mind is a blank as to what his name is -- how bad is that??) He asked a bunch of questions and I answered, and he said "How about a free training session today?" Well hell. Sure! I answered. (and then I wondered if that was the smart thing to do ???? hahah) He tells me "Get warmed up, I'll be ready in 4 minutes, I'm gonna grab my gear." I didn't think anything of it, assuming it would be the usual equipment. Turns out, its boxing gear! The whole time, he's chattering away about nothing, and fitting the gloves on my hands, and I'm sure the look on my face was like "Whaaaattt?" And we start in, soft swings at first, boxer's stance, and he's dancing away and telling me to come and get him, keep punching, don't stop ... I'm sure you get the picture! For 30 minutes, we kept going and going, changing stance, changing from a punch to an upper cut then back again. First time I ever had permission to hit a man.... lol
Any time you're ready, Mike Tyson.... bring it on!
This gal's rarin' to go!
(laughs ... yeah, right!)
