OOOUUUUCHIE!!

Tonight was my first Pilates class at the Y. It was an hour and a half intro beginner type class to give you the basics. Easy right?? WRONG. Oh so wrong. I have taken aerobics classes for years off and on, took ballroom dance which was pretty excercisy, I'm reasonably active for my age . I play crazy with my grandkids , rough house with my big boys , work hard , so this should be a piece of cake once I get warmed up.
My first clue should have been my cracking knees when I bent to take my place on my mat.Then we were to locate a certain muscle in our lower abdomen. I wasn't sure so the instructor came to my aid. As she was pushing on my stomach she said it should feel like a contraction. Holy cow, if someone would have yelled " It's crowning " I would not have been surprised. In fact I had a sudden urge to push. Oh sweet Jesus what have I gotten myself into??
Because I am a woman of my word and I have committed to twice a week for one month I shall see this through. One of two things will happen ,either I will become stronger and more flexible or I will give birth to twins. I'm going to bed now I am exhausted.. Happy Thoughts.
