I love adventure.
I love the unknown.
I love finding the hidden treasure and displaying it for the whole world.
sorry mental montage of heroic scenes just flashed through my head.
Anyway... I have found a new gem. It is heart pumping, sweat inducing, and makes your whole body shake. literally. No seriously... I mean 8.0 on the Richter scale.
It's called the Barre Method. This doozy of a class is based on interval training, isometrics, and dance conditioning. The kicker is that it feels more like a Pilates, stretching, and cardio class all rolled into one.
The basic concept is you work the muscle to fatigue and then stretch. And when I say fatigue, I mean f-a-t-i-g-u-e.
I was shaking, and sweating, and mentally swearing like a sailor trying to finish the sets. I loved every second of it.
You can see they have lots of videos that you can do at home.
Me personally, I love going to classes. I like the competitive edge. It keeps me honest and pushes me harder. I refuse to slack or be the weakest in the group. I also get a kick out of being the best.
They have studios all over the country. All you have to do is go to www.barmethod.com.
