The lecture last night was about fat, and eating some to get vitamins. Quite dull really.

The body pump class was a killer. My knees really hurt quite badly when trying to do some of the moves, and i was gritting my teeth against the pain in a way that i don't have to do for any other class. It obviously showed because the two instructors who were taking it both asked me if i had enjoyed it. The male instructor, who would have been quite amusing if i hadn't been in so much pain, suggest that i try doing the moves without weights and to make knee bends very small. I can then gradually work up to doing the full move. I don't know if i will do a class to test this, but it's worth knowing. The weekday pump class is on a monday at 7pm, which would be a rush to get to, the saturday class is at 2pm, and the sunday class at 10:15. It's something to think about anyway.
