swimmin ...worth it !

Yeah so I did put on a few extra pounds, & thnx to my friends who brought dis forth ,I had ample time to plan a fitness regime that I would embark on to come bac in shape !

Dese friends of mine didn’t themselves quite have the physique of john abrahim ! nowhere even close…lol(they r working on it though)
but yeah when it comes to gals they are always on lookout for hot chicks with lik wash-board abs and whose vital stats would match that of a model !

so I wasn much surprised when they threw some light on the fact that I had put on weight ! and would grow out of shape if didn’t do something abt it soon !

One of my friends used to go for joggin & I decided to join her in that but the lazy bum I am ….it takes more than an alarm to get me out of bed…
So ofcos the joggin thing didn last much the initial enthusiasm died down soon !

My mom proposed to take up yoga at home !
The idea was quite appealing cos neither did I have to forfeit my sleep nor go out early morning !
I could exercise at my own pace in my own bed !...so yeah I did try a few postures of yoga for a few days but later I realized that I spent much of my time in de ShavAsan( dose who dunno—its simply lying down n eventually people fall asleep )

So joggin n yoga were no good !
Den came the idea to go for dance classes !
I love dancing N dis way I could workout N have fun too,but to my despair dey had the classes on weekends only
So dancing wud mean giving up on the lazing around on weekends ! so de idea was dropped instantly !

Now Dere is dis friend of mine who had recently joined swimming & so happy was he with it that he time & again would ask me to join too !
N I always threw cold water on his enthusiasm,until one day one of my female friend got interested & asked me to accompany her to the pool jus to check out the place !

N yeah so swimming appealed to me too ! the water baby that I am !It took quite an effort to actually get started ,procuring a decent swimming gear ,enrolling for the batch n all !
But ultimately I did take up swimming. much to the surprise of my friends & folks !
Dat too the morning batch , 6 in the morning !

Early morning ,around 5.40 ..I crawl out of my bed & drive like 4 miles to go to the place !
N den de sluggish ,heavy eyed me looks at the water -

1…2….& 3…. (I actually make my frnd say dat before we dive )

Splash N into the pool…….slashing the lucid blue water !
..ummm ! Worth It !
