False alarm
Jun. 14th, 2017 09:11 amThe knee injury was the weirdest thing. Thursday I could barely walk; went home & iced it & took some Naproxen. Friday morning it was a bit creaky and by lunchtime completely better.
I've now worked out what set it off. It wasn't the class where it happened, it was the Zumba class the day before. We have a new instructor & new style. Which would be great if I was still a hyperactive skinny 20 year old. (I know. Two years ago I was doing Insanity weekly. But then injury and I'm not there again yet). I definitely noticed the strain on my knee last night. Here's hoping it doesn't get set off in my class tonight again.
So just when I had a routine going, I'm back shopping for classes. I should be shopping for a new gym, but there are only three cheap gyms in the city centre. Pure would be better, but all the Young People from work go there - who don't get about exercising when you're fat & old & injured. So no. Gym Group have nicer machines, but a truly uninspiring class list. If I didn't need classes, every big hotel has a gym membership programme (including the one across the road from work), but I really do need classes.
