Friday Favorite

First, I want to apologize for this being so late.  I guess better late then never said my mom who is sometimes Always late. 😉  My Friday Favorite is the LesMills Body Pump Workout.  Have you heard of this?  Many gyms offer a Body Pump class.  It is very popular.  Unfortunately there wasn’t a gym close enough for me that offered a class.  After some research I learned Beach Body sold an at home kit with the DVD’s.  I was thrilled!  I like doing weights but always feel uncomfortable in the gym because the machines are always being used by men.  Lots of them.  The gym I am a member of is open 24/7 so I thought that would help me get in there and use the machines on a less busy time.  Umm no.  Seems they are always there.  I tried for a couple months but then decided I was done with that.  Now that I have the Body Pump Program I am able to do the workouts in my own home.  It comes with 7 DVD’s, a barbell, two 5 lb and 10 lb weight plates.  I really want to tone and build muscle.  Believe me when I say you will feel the burn!!  I have decided to challenge myself with this for the next 30 days.  Anyone else doing a similar challenge?  It’s so nice when you have someone to hold you accountable. 🙂  Today I did the Pump Extreme and my shoulders and arms are already sore.  So here’s to Day 1.
