Workin’ On my Fitness

Sheezus, I’ve been busy.

Today was my second day of fitness bootcamp with FitWit. They work you HARD.

In my 2 days as a newbie Fitwit camper, I’ve learned:

1. What a kettlebell is. Its a rotund cast iron ball with a handle that you use to strengthen your bod. See: instrument of torture.

2. Burpees are to fat girls like dancing was to Reverend Shaw Moore in Footloose. Verboten. Well only for now, at least…until I get my fitness up to speed.

3. I have never known how to perform a proper push-up. I couldn’t even do the girly version the right way. My awesome instructor Josh G. suggested that I do the even more modified version of the push-up until I bring myself up to speed. They’re called “wall push-ups.” And it is what it sounds like. Doing push-ups against a wall. I’ll catch up to everyone else eventually. I’m a big ‘un. And big ‘uns need time, y’all.

4. I will not be able to lower myself on to a toilet seat or chair without a major struggle for at least a week. Seriously. I’ve never had to weigh the pros and cons of just how seriously I need to tinkle before I take action. Not cute, you guys. Not cute.

BUT despite the hard work and sore muscles, the FitWit staff and fellow campers have been incredibly supportive and very kind. And despite the only half-serious bellyachin’, its been a pretty bodacious experience so far.

And I’m looking forward to being totally ripped.

Hey studs. The beach is that way.

A rundown of missions accomplished to come tomorrow!
