At the YMCA as interns we are required to complete a paper that is kind of like bingo or tic tac toe. On the paper there are nine squares that say different types of workout classes that we need to complete before the end of our internship. The first class that one of my peers and I chose was one called vinyasa yoga. We chose this one because we thought that yoga was easy and calm so it would be a great way to get started. When we got to the class we got our matts set up and waited for the instructor to start. The class was very calm and easy going at first but after a while it started to feel like a workout, we were sweating and our arms and legs felt like noodles. When the class was done we were walking back to our work areas and we thought about how funny it was that yoga (something that is usually thought to be calm and relaxing) had made us feel so exhausted. The next class we took was a cycling class. I knew that this class would be worse than the yoga class because so many people have talked about this type of workout class and expressed how sore they were after. When we got in the class we set up our bikes and when we sat down in the bikes I realized how uncomfortable the seats were. It hurt me to sit on them for very long and my only thought was “How am I going to get through an hour of this?” When the class started I couldn’t believe how much of a work out it was. I didn’t understand how some people looked like this class was a piece of cake to them.
