Ahh... that ache. That numbing yet sadistically satisfying ache in the thighs and arms. Was the result of my first venture into a fitness centre yesterday. Took up a 1 wk free trial after 1) buddies' endless cajoles, 2) sinful makan episodes while in KL, and 3) decision to get some health & shape back.
For a start, covered ~3.5km brisk-walking on treadmill while listening to Fish Leong on mp3, and joined a 1hr Ashtanga Yoga class. And that's all it took to give me that ache - a reflection of my non-activity over the past 3mths (save for the occasional laps in pool). Even the heartbeat rate shown on threadmill screen was telling - a whooping 120+ beats/min when parameters were set to the mere basic. *Toinnnnn*
But watch it, I'd be up and about in just a while. Let me check it out for a week, join some other classes and see if I'm game/inspired/determined enough to put my bunny in for the longer haul. Then, I'd go invest in a nice, sporty, gym-y outfit that costs oh-so-much.

Hee hee, thanks fish buddy, for the encouragement. Just scared that it'd be a passing "re(4) chao(2)"... =P
