Updates & Jump ropes

This has been a big workout week for me! Here is a schedule of the classes I took:

Monday: LA Fitness - 8:30am Zumba & 9:30am Bootcamp 
               Zero Gravity Crossfit - 6:30pm Crossfit

Tues.      Zero Gravity Crossfit - 5:30pm Crossfit

Friday:   LA Fitness - 9:45am Body Pump
              Zero Gravity Crossfit - 4:30am Crossfit

Sat.        Zero Gravity Crossfit - 9:00am

I'm definitely feeling it today and looking forward to resting my body tomorrow. I did a bazillion squats all week so my quads are dead. As you can see I did a lot more classes at Zero Gravity Crossfit (ZGC) so here is a quick update:

Most of the classes were just woman except today there were a few men... everyone was really friendly. I liked trying a whole week at one place you get a much better feel for it. I really liked the workouts - today was the hardest. The thing I like about crossfit is you get a good combo of doing strength moves and quick cardio drills. I like lifting weights so it works for me. One of the downsides of ZGC is their class times -- they only have group classes at night and they are closed on Wed. & Sun. but the owner said he is working hard on expanding class times. Oh and he said they are going to be offering a membership for unlimited crossfit and yoga (at the Yoga Room next door) for one reasonable price -- pretty cool deal I think... makes it much more affordable.
As I said before I can see this gym really growing and expanding. 

Next update:

Remember CDR Crossfit? They have a new awesome building now and it's HUGE and really really nice. They have lots of new equipment, an inside running area, ring swings, etc.   

This week I'm going to try a TRX class at the Energy Lab in Redlands... I'm really excited to try this type of workout! 

Oh and I bought one of those cool speed workout jump ropes so I will be practicing "double unders" -- I will let you know how it goes. The best part... it was cheap... $8.85 and free shipping w/ amazon prime.
