I started going to the gym last week, and I've been enjoying workout classes instead of the monotonous routine of using the cardio machines. Today, I decided that I would try a strength building class. In the description, it said " The basics of strength resistance, with all the tools and none of the impact." It ended up being a 45 minute class of HIIT, and it definitely wasn't for beginners which is what I assumed it would be. Only 15 minutes into the class, I had to step out because I thought I was going to puke. I debated just stopping at that point, but I went back and did another 15 minutes. And I still left early. I was embarrassed that I had to modify the movements because I couldn't go as fast as them, and I STILL wanted to puke. It was difficult, and I felt like crap the whole time. Now I'm not a thin girl, I'm 5'8" and 315lbs which I know contributes to the difficulty level.
So I'm here looking for encouragement stories about how you've improved in your stamina since you've started working out. I'm debating not going back to the class until I lose a considerable more amount of weight. Is this the right decision or is it better to keep at it?
