I've rarely worked out in my life and keep dreaming of starting. I tried a class yesterday that pushed me a bit beyond my limit. I wasn't able to fully complete the last 10 or so minutes of the hour long routine.
I got really self conscious about it but for the first time in my life am feeling more determined to get to a point I can actually complete it. So I wonder, do I step back to a class I can do 100% already, but feels like a workout or just keep going at the same level until I can do it. I'm never sure how hard to push and when to respect my shaking muscles and take it back a notch.
Partially, I also want to push through the embarrassment of being the worst in the class. That's like a childhood issue of mine and probably why I never got into working out in the first place!
Anyone who has struggled to begin, what was your strategy that finally got you on the right path?
