I am an odd bird. While I do not like aerobic classes or group settings, I do enjoy working out with a partner. I have found that it is hard to remain motivated when I have to work out by myself, like now. But when I have a partner, I am motivated to push myself harder and further, not to mention I have a commitment to someone else just to show up and get my workout done.

Unfortunately, I do not have anyone up here to work out with. For the first time in my adult life, I do not have a group of friends where I live. My husband was walking with me when he was on days, but they moved him to nights mid-summer and then deployed him at the beginning of the month. So at this point I am just trying to find the daily motivation to do something. Some days it is easy and other days I just want to sleep. But on the flip side, I have been trying to watch what I eat, so I have not gone too overboard on that side of things.

I love working out at the gym or at home, blasting my music. I have never been in a group fitness class so Islam how I would feel about it.
