RSS Feed (xml)Tuesdays and Thursdays are my long days, i.e. I teach 3 or 4 classes on those days. But they are the days that leave me the most motivated and ecstatic about life. I guess the idea that endorphins make you happy is truly accurate.
One of the things I love about my decision to leave my full-time job is that, in doing so, I opened up my schedule for opportunities to teach (and attend) fitness classes in the mornings and afternoons. So my schedule on a Thursday, for example, is to wake up, get some things done, (9:30am) teach a class, change clothes, work on business stuff, (12 pm) teach a class, eat lunch, take a personal break, work on business stuff, (6 pm) teach a class, eat a quick dinner, (8 pm) teach a class, come home and bask in the wonderfulness that was my day and rest my tired body.
Today I attended a new class (Piyo) after I was personally done teaching for the day, and I loved it. As a fitness instructor, it's so nice to take a break from teaching and take a class as a student! I've been attending multiple yoga classes the last couple weeks and am trying to work some strength classes into the mix. Attending classes as a student is a great break from the preparing for a class, being the first and last one there, being "on" the entire time, being concerned about remember what comes next, and focusing on how the participants are doing.
Taking a break and attending classes is so refreshing. It's amazing. I could seriously hang out at the gym all day, just hanging with my gym friends and enjoying the amazing talent of each of the instructors.
And now I really want this shirt.
Thanks for sharing your experience about gym. Fitness Matthews is happy to hear your experiences and hopefully I'm pleased and would like to know from you. Ha, your desired T-shirt looks sound attractive. So thanks dude :)
