Turbo Splash before Book Club

I used to take a Zumba class on the nights that I have book club.  My family has a membership to YMCA that we mostly utilize for my kids to do sports.  It is about a half an hour drive from my house, so I really don't go to the gym very often due to the distance.  My book club is about 15 minutes from there, so I try to get the most out my rare nights out that I can.  My hubby and I also share a car, so I have to make the most out of when I have the car.

Zumba has moved to another time slot, so I'm trying to find another class to go to in place of that before book club.  Tonight, I tried Turbo Splash.  I have taken the class before when Hubby was working the night shift.  He now works the early morning shift, so I can't go to the gym in the morning.

Honestly, if I feel sore or not tomorrow will determine if I make this my replacement class or not.  I had taken the class before in the morning and it seemed a lot more challenging then.  Some of the students were also saying that the Friday evening class is different than the rest of the week.  The instructor called it Fun Friday.  There was a little bit of exercise in the class during the relay races.  It was fun, but I spent the majority of the time just treading water.  After the relay races, we played water volleyball.  Which again, was fun, but not really the workout I was looking for.  I really like water aerobics classes, especially with being such a beginner to exercise.

I need to get the most exercise I can with having such limited access to a gym.  Next time, I may try out Aqua Zumba or maybe I'll just swim laps.  It's fun to try out new things.  I had forgotten how much I enjoy volleyball.  One of the times that we go to the lake this summer, I'll have to bring along a ball and play volleyball first!
