Speaking of classes, I've started trying some different ones recently, including the one mentioned above. The YMCA here has some great offers and I'm sure most Y's across the country do as well. The Les Mills body pump one is very popular. It's a barbell class and works most muscle groups. When asked by the instructor if I was new to the Y I said no, just checking out some of the classes. I had found that although I can and do regularly work out on my own it had become routine and thought it might be time to mix it up a bit. Taking classes will help motivate and wakes up the body. Your body can get used to the usual and won't perform as well unless you change things a little and make it work harder again. It gets bored. I also have tried a kickboxing class at LA Boxing and hope to do the YMCA equivalent and also a class called CSI (Cardio Strength Intervals), this is what it says, cardio and weights. Very tough.
Don't be afraid to try new things and mix it up. You never know what you might find you enjoy.
With that it's off to dance class tonight. Been a break for a couple of weeks. Will be nice to see what is new for this semester.
So although the "so called" end to summer has come and gone, rest assured it's not quite over yet and you can still enjoy summer fun.
