P - is for Pilates

i finally did it. i finally joined a pilates class. of course, i enrolled myself in the beginner's class. i had no illusions about my flexibility though friends have told me that pilates isn't as hard as yoga. i've been wanting to take pilates classes since...ahm...2003 (4 years ago?!!!) but something always got in the way (yeah, excuses)!. when i found out that our gym holds pilates classes twice a week (one for beginners and another for regular participants), i no longer had an excuse to say no! =D

i had my very first pilates work out last monday. afterwards, i told W that the excercises were pretty easy compared to the weight lifting i did a few days ago. i shouldn't have spoken too early coz when i woke up the following day, my body was aching. i was even supposed to head to the gym that day but i cancelled it instead. i feel pretty good though and i'm glad i gave pilates a try. i already signed up for the next class and i'm counting on making this a regular thing. classes are held on mondays at 1pm so i just hope that our applications wouldn't go mad on mondays so that i can go down to the 5th floor for a quick pilates work out. ;) i think i'm beginning to like this "healthy lifestyle" W and I are trying to adopt. ;)
