About 2 weeks ago went to Barre3 studio to give it a shot
because I heard it strengthens the muscles and bones and even help people like
me with scoliosis to have a discipline with proper posture. So I decided to I
try out their special offer for beginners which you will pay 1500PHP for
3classes which you should attend within 2weeks upon registration, an hour class
cost 700PHP. So the beginners package is really a great deal. At first I did
not expect it to be difficult since my body is a bit flexible plus I do stretching
and cardio workout almost every day!
The first day caught me by surprise it was FAR DIFFERENT on
what I am used to doing, compared to my daily cardio exercise which requires
the use of power and strength. Barre3 requires you to use not only power and strength
but also grace and stability!
The one hour workout was pretty intense especially for a
beginner like me. I made a lot of mistake especially when it comes to maintaining
proper posture while doing the said exercise. After my first day I felt a bit
shaky but after resting for a bit and having a nice cold bath at home I somehow
felt better so I decided to do my daily workout which usually runs for an hour
and half.
The next day I could not even get up! My whole body was
numb, I forced myself out of the bed! What’s even worse is that it was even
painful for me to walk and most of all sit! The pain and numbness lasted for
3days **tsk tsk I shouldn’t have overdone my workout** because of that I did not
even want to go back to barre3 but I was oblige to, because I already did pay
for 2 more sessions and it was nonrefundable.
Day 2 was much better compared to day 1. I somehow felt it
was much more easier to follow though I still had a lot of thing I need to
improve on, but I think I’ve done pretty good compared to my first time. The
day after day 2 was also better, there was a bit of body aches but not as bad
as before. Maybe because I did not overdid the workout as I did before.
So I rested for a day before coming back this morning for my
3rd and final day of the promo. The instructor for today had taught
us a much more intense workout compared to day 1 and 2. It was very tiring and
extreme but was also FUN at the same time, I started to enjoy barre3 classes
and getting used to all the shakes and strains it causes to my body.
After the 3days trial of barre3 I found myself being more
aware of my posture and hsving an increase in stamina. I highly recommend this
workout for those who aims to have a leaner and stronger body, and also those
who wish to strengthen their bones. I plan to continue barre3 regularly and make
it a part of my daily routine!
