We spontaneously went to the zoo this morning. It was fun! Here were the highlights:
“Awww, look, the turtles are hugging!â€
This weekend, I found out that my gym is going to start offering PiYo classes! I am so pumped. I am DYING to try PiYo.
Does it feel like PiYo is everywhere right now? I sure feel that way… I think it’s going to be ‘the next big thing.’
PiYo is a combination of Pilates and yoga. You don’t hold poses for a long time; instead it’s a non-stop, fluid workout. Some gyms offer classes, but it’s my understanding that PiYo is mostly known as a Beachbody workout DVD (you know, like P90X or Insanity). And classes are normally set to Top 40s or club music, which I think is pretty awesome. Oh, and there’s NO JUMPING. Jumping always kill my knees and scare me away from soooo many similar workout.
I cannot waaaait to try this. I think I’ll like it, but I need to peek into a class first. I’m not sure if I could do this while pregnant… Any thoughts? But I’m really waiting for post-baby. I could use a toning program when this process is said and done; plus – I can do PiYo at home! I’m going to need some new workout DVDs once I combine newborn life + winter.
Other fitness ‘crazes’ that I’ve been into:
Running (if that counts as a ‘craze!’)
Triathlons (still am into this, at least in my heart – I dreamt about doing one the other night!)
The 30 Day Shred <—here’s my review!
Hot Yoga (the steamier, the better… Now, I feel like I am dying in a normal air conditioned room if the fans aren’t on. Hah!)
Spin (also still enjoy, but there was a time where I’d go to multiple classes a week)
What fitness crazes have you been into? Anyone else try PiYo? Thoughts?
My PiYo set and shakeology just arrived today! I’m so excited to try them out. I think it’s going to really help me stay flexible and injury free as I train for my next marathon.
