Aerobics Before Building Prevents Injuries

I notice as I get older it is a struggle to stay in shape. Just recently I constructed a gorgeous glass-block greenhouse for Kathy and those darn boxes of glass block were heavy. Add to that all of the bending and kneeling I had to do for the initial layout and you have a recipe for temporary muscle tears that create painful and nagging injuries.

Down the street from my house, you can find the Fisk home. Steve and Diane have lived there for every bit of 15 years. Diane has always been an aerobic instructor and you can tell by looking at her! I am so envious as she looks so fit and she always has a bounce in her step. I think it is the endorphins that are released after a workout.

Anyway, she has always tried to get me to come to her classes, but I always seem to have an excuse. To be honest, I rarely see any men at them and I have to be honest, I would feel a little embarrassed. But I think it is time to leave my pride at home and give aerobics a chance.

I don't know about you, but I hate it when I pull a muscle. I am miserable and often the job gets delayed or doesn't get finished for weeks. So I decided to do some research on the topic and stumbled across a pretty cool website called AboutAerobics.com. If you are a beginner like me, this may be a great place for you to start learning more about this fascinating way to help keep your body in shape.

I guarantee you would start doing aerobics if you saw how happy and cheerful Diane Fisk is. I swear it has to be aerobics because our houses are both connected to the same water main, so it surely isn't the water she drinks!
