Who's the crazy girl???

en·dor·phin/enˈdôrfin/

Noun: Any of a group of hormones secreted within the brain and nervous system and having a number of physiological functions. They are peptides that activate the body's opiate receptors, causing an analgesic effect.

Endorphins are my friends.....I love them with a passion!  They rear their fun little heads whenever I'm doing something wonderful and exciting - like working out!!!!!!
Sooooo I went back to spin today.  I've missed weeks due to summer and kids home from school.
If you ever want to have an endorphin high come to SPIN/CYCLE at LVAC on friday morning 10:15a.m.at Rainbow taught by none other than MS LYLA!  Ok she is my friend BUT she is seriously the best cycle instructor ever!  Maybe in the world....*smile*
Mix the combination of the music and the energy from the class, combine it with a screaming militant-like instructor urging you to "get your booty up the *imaginary* hill" and you've got a recipie for success. She referenced class as "the spinning sauna" today, which couldn't be a more accurate depiction of our Friday rides!  I love it.....



Things that come out of Lyla's mouth by way of motivation:
* my grandma could get up this hill faster than you
* if you wanna look cute, this class is not for you
* TAKE IT OUT!  (as in take the bounce, hips and bopping out...umm ya!)
* WEPA (to encourage us.....oh! she does love us)
* that's all you got...lets start it over
* I'm just the DJ
* why are you here? (she says "hee-ya" 'cuz shes from NY)

and my personal favorite:
* STOP BOUNCING LIKE A POPCORN

Which reminds me....I love all my Zumba classes, but if you attended yesterdays W. Sahara class.....YOU WERE ON FIRE!!!  Class was awesome, I left completely ready to take on the world - kids, heat, bad drivers and all.  I love the energy that people bring to class and that my friends is why I am a screaming lunatic in pretty much any class I attend.
I'm sure at times class members want to shove a towel in my mouth BUT that would be gross and nasty so please dont!  Just join in.....when you feel that surge of exhilaration, give in to it.....let all your inhibitions go and yell at the top of your voice....Wooohooooooooo, Owwwwww, Essssoooooooo, Yeah baby, whatever comes to mind.  I promise, if I am in the class, you wont be the only crazy one.
Cya soon *wink*
