CamGlen Radio Does Zumba in Glasgow

written by Stephen Morrison

As part of our CamGlen Radio Adventure Show, Paula McGuire and I met with Christine Peek of Zumba With Glasgow Sisters to find out more about  Zumba and about where you can try Zumba in Glasgow.  Read how I got on last year, when I tried my first Zumba class.

I can only blame myself. Label myself a “Try Athlete” and someone is eventually going to call me out. I didn’t think it would be the woman I loved, but it was!

For months, Teresa has been urging me to come along, to give it a try and to put aside my perceptions and assumptions. For months I have been telling her that I didn’t think it was for girls (I did), that I didn’t think it was a lesser form of exercise (I kinda did) and that I was totally unsuited to it (that one was honest).

But, when Christine Peek adopted my #onepercentmore challenge by offering a bring a friend for free deal, I knew I could resist no longer (not just because I’m cheap!).

I was going to try ZUMBA and I was just a little bit scared.

And not without reason. A constant theme of my blogs is that I’m uncoordinated. I’ve seen Zumba videos and there is far  too much going on,  for my liking. Another reason for my trepidation was that I wasn’t unfamiliar with Christine’s Zumba with Glasgow Sisters method of making you sweat. I “enjoy” her Kettlecise and Insanity classes. I had a suspicion that her blend of Zumba would be testing.

And I was right, on both counts.

As the only man in a room full of women all staring at me accusingly for invading their inner sanctum, I retreated to the back row, where my shuffling and stumbling would go relatively unnoticed until the instructor ultimately pointed at me and coordinated a group laugh.

This is what I was thinking. In reality, I was made to feel welcome and was even given a few words of encouragement. I did still head to the back row. And then it began.

I am ungainly. I am stiff and I have no rhythm. The first few tracks, I felt lost. I’d just get the hang of a move and Christine would move to the next. It was relentless. I was moving in the opposite direction to everyone else and I was having to occasionally stop and stare at what she, and everyone bar me, were doing.

Zumba in Glasgow

Put your right leg out

Just as I was getting into the swing of it, Christine announced that now that we were warmed up, it would get faster.

“F-A-S-T-E-R!?” I mouthed incredulously at my girlfriend.

But a funny thing happened. As it got faster and I started sweating even more, I started to relax. I started to get in time with the music. I started to enjoy it. Sure, I was still all over the place, but I was shaking my arms like I just didn’t care.

Zumba in Glasgow

Shake It up

As the music and moves moved from Salsa to Bhangra to African I started to feel my hips gyrating and my smile widening. Any more so and I’d be close to getting arrested. At one point I jumped out to berate Christine’s partner Spencer for not giving me some manly moral support and couldn’t help myself from dancing back into the room.

By the end, I didn’t want to stop. I was having a great time, doing something that the woman I loved, loved doing. Zumba is far removed from what too many people perceive it to be. It’s hard work, it’s a great workout and more importantly it is a whole lot of fun. All the way home we laughed and joked and I now appreciate just how hard Teresa trains.

What will my OnePercentMore Challenge have me doing next? It’s up to you. What would you like to see me try? Remember, I am a Try Athlete!

And, if you want to try Zumba in Glasgow, you could do a lot worse than trying Christine’s Monday, Wednesday and Friday classes. Alternatively, you can search for Zumba in Glasgow on the official Zumba page.

Don’t Worry, Be Happy

written by Stephen Morrison

I worried that when I walked away from Great Run that opportunities to promote physical activity to large audiences would diminish. Great Run was one of my greatest experiences, but it was also my biggest disappointment. I should have moved on, by now, but my name still appears on their pages and I still regret the unfortunate (but ultimately unavoidable ) ending of our partnership.

I worried that as my waistband increased, my message would be perceived as hypocritical and the irony of a now obese again man warning of the dangers of obesity was not lost on me. I have championed the idea of being Fat and Fit, but how can I inspire others, when I have recently been unable to motivate myself and I feel that I’ve been stuck down in a hole.

I worried that my increasing knee pain would limit my ability to keep active and would prevent me from continuing my fun life as a try athlete and Jack of all trades. It seems that I have finally answered my question of How Many Miles?

I worried that giving up on friendships and things that I cherished would force me back into the shadows and enable Stephen the Recluse to re – emerge. I haven’t seen some friends in months and I am again using excuses to avoid meet-ups.

I worried that I was losing the respect of my boys and that I embarrassed them. Other dads were fitter (and younger) than me and I am again adding layers (in summer) to try and hide my waistline.

I really do worry too much and this week has reinvigorated me.

Maybe it was the lovely gift from Lululemon or The Boss reminding me that we are born to run or Ali Clarkson showing me his magic moves on a bike, but as I type this I am dancing in the dark (the light bulb just blew) and I know my glory days will return. I have spent too long in the badlands.

Yesterday, myself, Paula McGuire and Colin Thomas recorded some great material for CamGlen Radio and thanks to Paula, I am having fun again as a try athlete. We are not as polished as other broadcasters (well, I am not), but we are putting out some entertaining (I think) and educational (I bloody hope do) broadcasts with wonderful guest interviews. Colin was simply wonderful and will be joining us for at least the next month as we talk about running. It’s not quite racing in the street, but for an injured runner, it is reminding me why I love running.

I WORRIED

Please tune in this and every Tuesday at CamGlen Radio . Nowhere else, in my hometown, will you hear about as many new activities, for you to try.  Let us know if we have encouraged you to cycle and run or to try Zumba, bowls or yoga. 

Today, the boys and I are starring in an advert together, as an active family for Vitality. We are also being featured in a Father’s Day story on active dads and my boys are again talking about taking up sports and planning days out with me. Those two hearts are what really inspires me to be a local hero.

And then, next week, I start my new role as the Communications Officer for the Civil Service Sports Council in Scotland and I discover what the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons have in store for me, as I step into a new role promoting the #FeetforLife campaign.

Can I Run? My question to Hampden Sports Clinic.

written by Stephen Morrison

Can I Run?

This is not some sort of philosophical soul searching or Eastern enlightenment from my Chi Running workshop. It is the question that I asked my physiotherapist, Jim Fallon, at the Hampden Sports Clinic last night.

Please allow me to rewind.

Back in 1978, aged 5 years old, I fell over in pain. I hadn’t tripped or had a slip; I had a problem with my hip. That problem had a name. Perthes Disease.

Hampden Sports Clinic

Monkeying around in my crutches.

It led to me spending six weeks in a hospital bed, with my legs attached to pulleys. Imagine being strapped to a medieval rack, but then being served copious amounts of ice cream.  This was followed by several years in crutches and a prophecy.

I would never be an athlete. I would grow with one leg shorter than the other and I would undoubtedly succumb to joint problems and early onset arthritis.

When you are 7 years old, joint problems as an adult are not on your list of pressing priorities, which, for me, included adding to my Star Wars figure collection.

Fast forward 36 years and to last night and the adult me is remembering that prophecy, but also thinking about adding to my running shoe collection.

I have been struggling with knee pain for a few months (ok, years) and last night I was given the news and advice that every runner dreads and ultimately ignores.

I should not be running.

Not now, not soon and ideally never again on concrete (he did not exclude trail running!).

My knees have carried a lot of weight over the years, especially when you think of my years weighing over 25 stone and they have not escaped unscathed. It is time for me to take care of them.

So, I will actually listen to my Hampden Sports Clinic physiotherapist and focus on strengthening my legs and trying to address my flat feet (Scott Devenney, hopefully to the rescue ).

OM Yoga Show Glasgow – A non yogi’s review

written by Stephen Morrison

I am overweight, inflexible and I have reached that age, when every movement is accompanied by noises. Either a guttural old man groan or a more concerning pop in my knee or a click in my hip. Recently these have been accompanied by a stab of pain and it has led me to being less active than normal.

So, when I was invited to a yoga class in Mumbai (we were in India), my first thought was that it would be full of lithe, fit and beautiful yogis performing poses that I would struggle to watch, never mind replicate.

But Poornandu, the instructor, allayed my fears, as we chatted and walked from Mumbai’s Grant Street Station to the German School, where he would introduce me to Iyengar yoga and remind me why I keep saying that I need to do more yoga.

The setting was perfect. Palm trees swayed above us in a gentle breeze that ensured that we wouldn’t be participating in an outdoor Bikram (hot ) Yoga class and birdsong replaced the constant beeping of the Mumbai traffic.

Poornandu expertly guided us through sixty minutes of challenging moves, that stretched every limb and opened up my lungs (there’s something to this whole breathing through the nose thing). Being a novice (and mouth breather ), I had to have my posture corrected by poor Poornandu, on a few occasions, and he did so in a reassuring manner that made me feel relaxed and made me forget that I was the least flexible person in attendance (or possibly in existence).

By the end, I was standing taller, walking lighter and feeling rejuvenated.

It was everything that yoga should be and I vowed that on my return to the UK , I would find and attend a yoga class.

So, when the OM Yoga Show came to Glasgow and kindly invited me along, I thought what better way to find out more about yoga and catch up with some yogi friends. It would also make a great feature for my weekly radio show with Paula McGuire (listen out this Tuesday on CamGlen Radio).

Unfortunately for me, however, the OM Yoga Show Glasgow was everything that I feel is wrong with yoga and with expos, in general.

While there were many skilled yoga teachers, like Scott McDonald, present and several great yoga studios, such as Seasonal Yoga, advertising their services, there were too many tarot card and palm readers, crystal and rock sellers and businesses feeding off the appetites of those looking for vegan friendly foods and clothing. I didn’t realise that being vegan was a prerequisite of practising yoga.

It was all too mystical and in my opinion, the inclusion of fortune tellers, was telling. Too many were trying to make their fortunes from the archetypal yoga practitioner.

Don’t need to be psychic to see that this is mystical nonsense

The OM Yoga Show Glasgow marketing also seemed to be one dimensional and consisted mainly of pictures of young fit women literally bending over backwards to show off their yoga talents.

While this might, indeed, be aspirational for some, I do believe that more inclusive (and less frightening) marketing might attract more new practitioners and possibly more men.

Too few men practice yoga and this has seen the continued rise of classes such as Broga (read my Man V Fat review) and Matt Miller’s Broga workshop, at the OM Yoga Show Glasgow was full …. of mostly women. Hopefully, in the future, we will see more men trying yoga.

Yoga for Bros. ..and sisters.

The day was rescued by Scott and Julie of Seasonal Yoga, who both spoke passionately and eloquently about yoga and its benefits and I have decided that I will not allow the disappointment of the OM Yoga Show Glasgow stop me from making yoga an integral part of my training and a means of relaxing.

It all starts on Thursday at Finn’s Place, Langside Church.

CamGlen Radio : New weekly Adventure Show

written by Stephen Morrison

While every other blogger is turning their attention to vlogging, Periscoping and Snapchat, I am going old school and using the tried and trusted medium of radio to share my try-athleting ways.

From tomorrow and then on each and every Tuesday, I will be joining the amazing (not a word I use lightly ) Paula McGuire, of Paula Must Try Harder , on her CamGlen Radio Adventure Show to discuss ways to become more active.

Paula and I first became friends in 2013 when we were both selected to blog for the Commonwealth Games and we are now reuniting to deliver a weekly dose of fun, inspiration and our own brand of Legacy.

Well, that is the plan. It might take me a few weeks to discover my radio voice (there is a reason I blog). I already have a radio face.

Each week, I will reporting on an activity and tomorrow starts with how I first started out on my path (literally).

With walking and with Paths for All

Stepping out at work

So, tune in to Paula’s Adventure Show on CamGlen Radio from 11.00am and listen out for my dulcet tones.

Let’s Get Scotland Walking and more active. Let’s have fun and let’s all become Try-Athletes with CamGlen Radio and the Adventure Show.
