Aspria Avenue Louise: My Muscle Awakening!

Mademoiselle Le K-Aspria-Louise-Day-3-Aerotonic-Swimming-Pool-Hammam-Sauna

Ages since I haven’t done any sport

A few days after my Shiatsu massage, I go to the locker room (picture 3). When I arrive at the studio (picture 1), I’m 5 minutes late and the famous Aerotonique session has already started! Azziz replaces David which is the usual coach. Honestly when Antoine Houssière, the Well-Being Manager of the Aspria Avenue Louise offered me this group course, I didn’t really understand (or try to understand) what it was! I just kept in mind it was dynamic!    

From the beginning, I jump and steps to-side-behind-acceleration… very rhythmic cardio! Everyone follows, at first I had trouble to coordinate sequences. When we started to use the ball and the carpet, I understood it’s going to hurt! I can’t exercise such as pumps on one arm (frankly, what an idea! LOL!). But I try, I try everything! Occasionally Azziz checks and corrects our postures. His good humor is contagious and motivating.    

At the end of the course I recognize some moves borrowed from the Sun Salutation (Yoga, Tai Chi). I’m extremely tired and sweating, but smiling! I decide to go for a swim in the pool to soothe muscles, plus a bit of hammam, sauna and jacuzzi (picture 2). Then I go straight to bed, yes! The next day, aches all over my body but I “manage” them (LOL!). And the day after that, the aches are more painful. Even laughing hurts my abs, but I feel more positive and highly recommend this trainning! Conclusion I had to postpone my individual coaching session! To be continued …

Aspria Avenue Louise: le réveil musculaire!

Une éternité que je n’ai plus fait de sport

La suite : peu de jours après mon massage Shiatsu, je file au vestiaire (photo 3). Lorsque j’arrive au studio (photo 1), suis en retard de 5 minutes : le fameux cours d’Aerotonique a commencé! Azziz remplace David qui est le prof habituel. Honnêtement lorsque Antoine m’a proposé ce cours, je n’ai pas trop compris (ni cherché à comprendre) ce en quoi ça consistait! Juste que c’était dynamique. Et c’est le moins qu’on puisse dire!      

Ca commence fort : dès le début, on saute (échauffement?) et enchaînement de pas devant-côté-derrière, accélération… du cardio très rythmé! Tout le monde suit, au début j’ai du mal à coordonner les enchaînements. Arrivent le ballon et le tapis et là je comprends que ça va faire mal! Je ne tiens pas certaines postures, comme les pompes sur un bras (franchement, quelle idée, LOL!). Mais j’essaie, j’essaie tout! De temps en temps Azziz passe parmi nous pour corriger les postures. Sa bonne humeur est communicative et motivante.    

En fin de cours je reconnais quelques mouvements empruntés à Salutation au soleil (Tai-chi, Yoga). Je suis en nage, crevée, mais souriante! Va pour quelques longueurs dans la piscine pour calmer les muscles, auxquelles j’ajoute des A/R aux hammam, sauna et jacuzzi (photo 2). Ensuite je file direct au lit, clap de fin! Le lendemain : courbatures partout, je gère (LOL!). Et le jour d’après, je déguste vraiment : les courbatures sont plus douloureuses. Même rire me fait mal au abdos, mais je me sens plus positive, un cours à recommander! Conclusion j’ai dû reporter ma séance de coaching individuel! A suivre…

Wellness & Fooding Weekend in Poland (Part 2)

For all those who will party and eat quite a lot tonight, here is an idea of detox weekend’s destination! Few months ago, I was invited in the region of Swietorkrzyskie (Holy Cross) in southern Poland for a wellness and fooding weekend. After the discovery of the Baseny Mineralne, a new spa complex and the Malinowy Zdroj Medical Spa **** , I plunged with delight in the design pool of the Odyssey hotel (pictures 2 & 3) ! What a pleasure to swim while enjoying a panoramic view of the city of Kielce ! It changes the monotony of back and forth swimming ! Mademoiselle, come on, stop pretending just swimming! Ok I confess, I mainly tested the jacuzzi (but it’s also a hard work to tone!). Time to slip into a wide bathrobe for a facial at the spa hotel (pictures 4 & 5). And I fear a little, I’ve never tested SkinCeuticals cosmetics. My therapist has magic fingers and quickly I fall asleep. Wake up, my ultra sensitive skin radiates ! And I’m a kind of picky, always looking for skin imperfection. After the effort, the comfort, I have to go dressing for the dinner at the Space Odyssey Restaurant. The chef Tomasz Pawluska offers a tasty simple lightweight Polish cuisine (pictures 1, 6 & 7). And if like me, you really enjoy the simplicity, you will feel spoiled here ! The food is delicious and the presentation is neat with an efficient discreet service. Time to enjoy food after training, LOL !  

MERRY CHRISMAS TO ALL OF YOU!
