I walked in expecting another dance-focused Jazzercise class… and Surprise!π
It turned out to be Cardio Sculpt HIIT instead.
I made it about 35 minutes before my knees officially filed a complaint with management. π
ποΈ Goblet squats with an 8-pound dumbbell
πͺ Upper-body work with two 5-pound dumbbells
β€οΈ Averaged 133 bpm
π₯ Earned 32 Active Zone Minutes
π Discovered my shoes work better without my Good Feet inserts for all the pivots and side-to-side movements.
I modified every jump into low-impact steps because my knees and ankles appreciate keeping the warranty intact. π
The floor work, planks, and anything involving balancing my entire body on my toes? Yeah… that’s still a hard pass.
The good news?
My heart and lungs were ready to keep going.
My knees were the ones calling it a day.
That’s actually encouraging because it tells me my fitness is improving, even if my knees are still negotiating the terms. π€
I also learned something important: regular dance-focused Jazzercise is probably my sweet spot, while HIIT Sculpt is a fun challenge to visit once in a whileβnot every class.
Still counts.
π Every workout teaches you something, even if today’s lesson was, “Planks and I are not currently accepting new friendship requests.” π πποΈ
Still counts. Because showing up, modifying when you need to, and learning what your body can do today… always counts. π
