There are two sports I have always wanted to try: boxing and rowing. I didn’t get a chance to row this summer but last week I got the chance to box at Powerclub.
This AWESOME new gym in Forest Hill is owned by a school yard mom who I have known for several years. Rachelle, had extended a generous invitation to book an hour with one of their trainers and I accepted. I just had to find the HOUR. (easier said than done).
I walked into the beautiful space, proceeded to get changed and didn’t want to leave the change room coz I was in love with the red sink.
Now how cool is that for a bathroom sink at a gym?
Sorry, I just had to talk about the sink!!
Back to boxing.
I then met my trainer, Erez, who is beyond fit, beyond knowledgeable and made me feel completely at ease.
I warmed up and then..THE GLOVES WENT ON! (I was pumped the minute the gloves went on)
He put me thru a series of drills and I WAS LOVING IT.
Couldn't stop smiling (and sweating)!!
Erez had me boxing!! He also put me thru some other key exercises (core, abs, balance etc). Just like a good trainer!
Words that kept going thru my mind as I boxed: empowered, strong, capable, determined and more empowerment.
After the workout, Erez put me thru some stretches so I wouldn’t feel sore the next day. Guess what? NOT SORE THE NEXT DAY. Awesome.
Then, Rochelle and I chatted while I sipped a protein shake in their gorgeous fireside lounge.
Having Fun...Post Workout
