weeks ago, I walked into a group workout class with people half my size, not
knowing whether I would be able to do the class. It was a weight and cardio style workout,
which on paper seemed incomprehensible for anyone over 300 pounds. But I modified a few moves and was able to do
it - and continued doing it multiple times a week.
Tonight,
I walked into a kickboxing class, REALLY not knowing what to expect. I didn’t even know if my body would allow me
to do all the moves. Was I nervous at
first, yes. Did I know if I would be
able to finish the whole thing, no. But
I knew I would never know what I was ready for next, unless I tried it.
Trying
doesn’t have to mean potential failure…..it just means you are figuring out
what you can and can’t do at the moment.
And then you try again.
