Gym!

[dianec42]

I went to the gym this evening, after a 6-day gap. Which is less than the 2-week gap prior to the last time, but still more of a gap than there should be.

I did not do my usual 30 minutes of varying hill on the treadmill; I did 20 minutes of that, then 10 minutes lowering the slope gradually to flat. Then I did (jog 1 minute + walk 1 minute) 5 times, for a grand total of 40 minutes on the treadmill. There were also some weights and ab stuffs in there as well.

I feel MUCH better.

Well done you! I escorted the Italian stallion to the Old Course spa yesterday, where I had him join me in a sculpt and define class for a half hour, then to follow he had a 45-minute session with the trainer lifting weights. We swam and lounged a lot in the various hot tubs, had lunch, and then we both had some foot reflexology done. I thought this was a 'gentle' intro to the gym and spa scene, but apparently this was too much. When I rang him this AM at work, the first thing he said was 'I am broken'. Oops.

Hee hee! The one time my gym buddy and I tried to get her husband to join in, he lasted for less than a minute on the cross trainer, and about 10 minutes on the treadmill. I don't usually think of myself as particularly fit, but I am way more fit than some people I know.

I made it 2 days in a row! I may even go again tonight.

I know that when NORMAL people go to the gym 3 times a week, they tend to space it out more, but I figure going 3 days in a row is better than NOT doing it...

I need a gym icon.
