I may be the only one on the planet. I think I've heard that song maybe once. LOL. Thanks for linking with us Emily.

That would be a lot of fun! YES on how these different workouts target such surprisingly different muscles. I have a lot more respect for pro boxers, now. I always though boxing was just about arm strength - I had no idea how much boxing works the back muscles, too!emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-25144399194302412812016-03-30T14:33:50.981-05:002016-03-30T14:33:50.981-05:00The boxing and running sounds so fun!

I need to start doing more walks just to get fresh air, if nothing else!<br /><br />It's funny - when I was a student, none of us had flat screen TVs or mobile phones, and email was a brand-new thing. My nephew (who's a college sophomore at my alma mater) would probably die if he had to live in the conditions I did as a student, LOL.emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-34606123477708842752016-03-30T11:12:39.387-05:002016-03-30T11:12:39.387-05:00I try to work out through the soreness, even if it...I try to work out through the soreness, even if it's just a long, brisk walk. I think the instinct is definitely to rest, but it definitely helps!<br /><br />The same is definitely true for my university! When I was there, the Sociology (my major) & Anthropology departments were in an "annex" that was basically an overgrown trailer. They've since demolished said trailer and apparently now all the cool S&A kids get to have classes in a real building like all the other departments.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18403024177515079403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-45345332853201649562016-03-30T09:53:58.510-05:002016-03-30T09:53:58.510-05:00Hello is the prototypical song to get stuck in you...Hello is the prototypical song to get stuck in your head because the melody is relatively simple, right?

Thanks again for suggesting the festivities - we'll definitely plan on doing Round 2 soon! =)<br /><br />I always think it's counterintuitive to run the day AFTER a tough workout, but you are right - it does help with the soreness. I read it was because getting the blood flowing helps with flushing out lactic acid. Makes sense - but it is so hard to get moving when your muscles are burning, yes?<br /><br />LOL, that can be both a good thing and a bad thing to associate me with Hello since it gets played so often! It is funny how the associations arise, though, yes? One of my coworkers said when Adele concert tickets went on sale earlier this year, she was parked at her computer with like 5 Ticketmaster browser windows open. So now hearing Adele reminds me of my coworker!<br /><br />I've been surprised going back to my hometown, too, and seeing how much it's changed. Same thing with my university, which has gotten WAY nicer after I graduated!emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-61251402650821145812016-03-30T09:47:45.725-05:002016-03-30T09:47:45.725-05:00Thank you again for an awesome class! It really wa...Thank you again for an awesome class! It really was terrific to mix up the usual weekly workout routine and target some completely different muscles. I like to try keeping things well-rounded! I think it makes us better athletes overall.<br /><br />Adele is COMPLETELY overplayed. Her music is great but when you've heard it for the millionth time, it does start to lose some of its luster. Do you listen to Mix 101.9? I swear they play the same set of about 25 songs over and over and over, including Adele. <br /><br />I wouldn't say Lindenhurst is very happening, LOL. But yes, your home is definitely what you make it. You and Steven have been really making a lot out of your new home. =) emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-19331179610831699582016-03-30T09:44:39.733-05:002016-03-30T09:44:39.733-05:00Lacey, boxing classes made me realize that boxing ...Lacey, boxing classes made me realize that boxing is much harder than it looks!

P...I'm so glad we could hang out on Saturday!!! Please come back soon! :)<br /><br />I usually run the day after Kim's class - I actually find it helps with the soreness! I hope you found the same to be true.<br /><br />I heard "Hello" on the radio last night and thought of you. So that's what I'm going to associate it with! It's overplayed, but I really like it anyway. A lot more happens in my hometown now than when I lived there, which sometimes surprises me when I visit. In general though, I think a lot of song lyrics personally apply to me. :)Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18403024177515079403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-9156702400895547832016-03-29T10:47:05.049-05:002016-03-29T10:47:05.049-05:00I am happy the boxing soreness didn't set back...I am happy the boxing soreness didn't set back your run too much! I think an easy run the day after an intense workout helps me recover... but hills aren't an easy run. LOL. Oops. Thanks so much for coming! It was a blast!<br /><br />Man, I liked that song at first but now I can't stand to her any Adele song because they are so overplayed! But I definitely thought about those lyrics the first time I heard them! Funny though, that your hometown is more happening than where I live now ;) Your home is what you make it!
