Well Zumba class was shortened due to equipment failure. It's a lil hard to do zumba without music. Therefore I had enough time to get ready for the pool and sit in the Arizona dry heat room before water aerobics began. As I sat in the room there was a conversation between a couple of ladies. Lady A has a 18 year old grand daughter that's over 300 lbs and she is trying to convince her to go to the gym or more like make her come workout. One thing I took away from the convo that the other lady pointed out is that you can't make her come to the gym or take better care of herself. You can encourage and support but it has to be something she wants and is determined to do herself.
On to the pool water aerobics was good. It's been a while since I've been the water basically because I don't trust pools. Especially public pools cuz people are nasty and chlorine doesn't clean or kill everything but I digress. I definitely worked muscle groups the I had long forgotten about.
So after class I was in the pool doing a lil extra cardio and was approached by a 75 year old Asian lady I swear she looks 50. Anyway she began to asks how often i come to the gym and explains to me how important exercise is to your health especially as you age. She said 'exercise comes first', when she said that I thought 'no God comes first' and before I could figure out how to saw it the politically correct way (smh) she asked if I know about God or went to church. I replied yes and we had a great conversation about being filled with the Holy Spirit and how we don't have any strength or power without God and how he made her happy. She talked of trusting God because of Romans 8:28
"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose." So even though bad things happen good can come out of it.
I can't begin to really convey or share everything but I enjoyed my day of working out.
My food journal was on point until later that day. But I'm not ashamed. If you want to see the details friend me on MyFitnessPal.com I am SheeTacular.
Smooches
