I have taken up a new addiction...and it's actually good for me! My friend Dana got me hooked on this amazing class at my gym (24 Hour Fitness) called 24 S.E.T. The class is 60 minutes of strength training and cardio endurance intervals. Each interval is about 3 minutes, alternating between weight lifting with a loaded bar or dumbbells and step aerobics. It is killer! The first time I went, I thought I might die, but I have since become obsessed....often cruising between various gym locations just to make sure I can take the class as often as possible. If you are someone who goes to 24 Hour, TAKE THIS CLASS! You can thank me later!

I have also become addicted to another class at the gym called Zumba. This class is 60 minutes of Latin dance routines, including Salsa, Cumbia, Samba and a few others. It is so much fun! It has totally given me a greater appreciation for the people on Dancing With the Stars because the moves are so hard (not to mention fast!). I have also realized that I have no coordination, but I'm hoping to improve that over time. Last weekend I got Jerome to take the class with me, and he even thought it was fun. Maybe we will finally get the nerve to go Latin dancing now that we have seen how fun it can be!
I hope you will try these classes too!
