I had another casual pole class at Pole Fever Fitness Studios today. We learnt a new move where we let go of the pole with out hands and hold on only with our thighs and legs. This was a lot of fun to do, but oh man there was some serious inner thigh burn. Not just burn. I'm talking buuuuuurrrnnnnn. It was such a cool achievement though. I really enjoy the classes at Pole Fever. They are having a grand opening in Wanneroo on the 2nd of November. If you're in the area then I highly recommend that you check the place out. All the girls here are so friendly and are very well trained in what they do. Pole Fever definitely gets a 10/10 from me :) :)
I attended a fitball session today at Pole Fever Fitness Studios. I've never done any exercises with an exercise ball before, but wow it really gets you working. I swear, I was sweating just as much as a cardio class! Using the exercise ball helps you to get your technique right for when you're doing lunges and squats, but it also makes it that much harder and your muscles start to burn a lot quicker. I am so keen on buying myself an exercise ball now! Using these babies (the correct way) is a sure fire way of having a great workout for abs, butt, thighs and arms. Yep, one ball helps work out all those areas. Invest in one for sure! Mind you, they're not even that expensive. So now you have no excuse. Just make sure you know how to use it right. Hop on YouTube and watch some workouts, or better yet, go to one of the Pole Fever fitball sessions :)
I'm very much in love with One Republic's most recent album Native. This song is called 'feel again'. Check all of the other songs on the album too.
My friend Nhi and I bought a voucher from Our Deal for 8 classes at Pole Fever Fitness Studios. They run a lot of different fitness sessions, but tonight we attended a casual pole class. I never thought that this would be something I would try, but it was actually really fun (and there's that saying: "you don't know until you try"). The class had about 12 or so girls of all different ages ranging from all different levels of experience. Myself, Nhi and two other girls were newbies. Tonight's session was good because the instructor went through mainly the basics because there were so many new comers. We started off with some warms ups and then got into body rolls, spins and lifting ourselves up onto the pole. The class was about 45 minutes long and this beginners session was a pretty good workout. Some of the more advanced girls could do some pretty crazy amazing moves. Their balance, strength and flexibility was just incredible. One minute they'd be standing on the ground and the next they'd be upside down all the way at the top of the pole. These girls were seriously talented, and it was great because they were all really enjoying themselves and pushing themselves to do better and improve. The whole environment was really welcoming too. At first it was quite intimidating walking into the room with all these girls show casing their talents, but after a while you just get lost in what you're doing and you forget about everyone else. I think in most situations like this, everyone is too busy focusing on how they're doing to notice those around them. It's a good class to do if you want to gain some confidence too :) I had a really good time tonight. To be honest, I had much more fun with my friend Nhi there to share the laughs with me. If you're keen to try it out, bring a friend who is equally and keen to try something new.
This song always gets me in the mood for some groovin' and booty shakin' :P I'm so excited to the Beyonce concert in November!!
My friend Nhi and I bought a voucher from Our Deals for 8 lessons at the fitness studio Pole Fever for a bargain price. Unfortunately we put off booking our classes for a few weeks and only realised last week that the deal expires on the 12th of September. So we madly booked all 8 classes within the next two weeks. Our bodies are going to be sore, but hey, lesson learned. The voucher wasn't just limited to pole classes, but you could choose from their list of other fitness classes such as ABT (abs, butt and thighs), cardio, flex N stretch, body sculpt and many more. Nhi and I waned to do some classes together, but the only times our schedule correlated was for a 6am and 8pm class. We did the ABT and body sculpt, respectively. Oh man. Oooooh maaaaan. I'm aching. I'm so proud of us for doing two classes in one day though. We were definitely pushed to our limits with these classes, but it has only motivated us to better ourselves. The ladies running the sessions are super friendly and they are very encouraging too. Each session has about 6 people so if you're not a fan of small groups....don't worry, everyone is really nice and they're all hurting as much as you are. Mind you, some girls look absolutely stunning after the workouts. Me on the otherhand. Sweaty like a man and hair all messy and stuck to my face and neck. I may look gross, but these workouts make me feel great :D Grab a friend and join in the fitness fun. Also look out for vouchers on those daily deal websites like Scoupon, Red Balloon and Our Deals etc. I hope you get involved, and maybe I'll see you there :)
One of the new Beyonce songs. Love it because it's so fierce. This is definitely one of my new workout songs :)
