Changed my routine

I LOVE a rational plan and a successful routine. I hate trying new things that I am not sure I will end up doing successfully. I don’t hate it like a rational person. I mean I hate it in a “she’s just not hooked-up right” kind of way. Well, today I changed my workout. I know, I know, this seems like nothing but it really is a big deal for me! I bought a book with all these crazy exercises with a stability ball. Let’s discuss a stability ball for just a second. It should be called an instability ball. It’s round for heaven’s sake! Consider that before beginning an exercise on the instability ball, one has to “mount” it in some fashion. This really presents all sorts of opportunities to embarrass oneself in front of the gym-going public. Once you have successfully wiggled yourself into position on this thing you are required to perform physical tasks while maintaining your precarious position on the stupid ball. It is hard! I mean, I am in really good shape, people, and it was hard!Today I sucked it up and embarrassingly and clumsily balanced myself on the “ball of satan” and did some stuff pretty poorly. It was easily the best thing I did today.
