Hi ladies!
I go by joanalona, but you can call me by my real name - Joan.
I've posted several times, but never really introduced myself.
It's my one year anniversary of working out! I decided to return to aerobics class and achieve my long-ago dream of being an instructor. I now teach at a local gym - my permanent class is Aerobic Combo on Tuesdays. Aerobic Combo for my class is usually step and kickboxing, sometimes interval style. I always try to do 20 minutes of weights.
I also sub between 3 - 5 classes a week; anything from Step and Hi/Low to Abs and Sculpting. So you could definitely call me a cross-trainer!
I use videos in addition to the classes I take (and teach.) My heroes are Cathe and Christi, and I also love Janis, Chalene, and Ilaria from Powerstrike.
I love dancy step, not that I'm good at teaching it, but I'm trying!
My current workout schedule varies between step, kickboxing, weights, and spinning. As for favorite DVD's, right now I'm into Cathe's Cardio & Weights, Low Max, Muscle Max, KPC, and hope to learn Step Blast soon. I also like Turbo Jam, and any Christi that I can manage. (Right now, that limits me to Humble Beginnings!)
I used to join the Intermediates check-in, but it got away from me. I'm currently looking for lots of motivation from other die-hards (obsessives?) like myself. I'd also love to tone up my thighs! (An instructor who won't wear shorts? Ridiculous, I know...)
So hello to all you wonderful VFer's! I love knowing I'm not the only who worries about Cathe's injury and the paltry selection of good kickboxing w/o's.
Thanks for keeping such great company, and I hope you've enjoyed my (few) postings.
P.S. If anyone can recommend a Check-In with other die-hards (obsessives?), please post here or send me a PM.
