Boot Camp part deux
What are the two most terrifying words in the English language? I will tell you, "pulse it"!! Alright, I might be slightly exaggerating, but they are the most terrifying words in my life right now. In fact, when the alarm went off this morning at 5:30 the fear of those words almost made me ignore it altogether. But, I didn't. And, when I arrived I thought I had been rewarded. There were no resistance bands out. I was so relieved. I saw some white bars on the mats instead. I went to grab my stuff and noticed there were numbers written on one side of the white plastic bar. That's right, folks, the numbers referred to the weight in the bar. But, I figured anything was better than those bands. I was so wrong!! The bar weighed 10 pounds. That was the lightest available. To warm up she had us do 25 squats while holding the the thing over our heads. Then we had to run suicides, come back, and sit on the wall with the thing over our heads. That was one of the many torture scenarios she cooked up for today's boot camp class. And, it was awful. It really was. But, the worst part was the music. She has 80's crap rock playing in the background the whole time. I had to listen to Foreigner!! It was almost too much. I need that music to take my mind off of the pain. The Foreigner and Styx was just making the pain worse. It was like being physically and mentally tortured. So wrong!! In any case, I made it through. And, if we ever catch Osama I now know of the ideal punishment!! ha ha!!
