First time in the gym and weekly round up - long and self indulgent post

[Squidge]

Okay guys I have been VERY good the last week:

- Thursday - 5 mile stationary bike (30.34 mins)
- Friday - 5 mile stationary bike (30.13 mins)
- Sunday - 6 mile walk (1 hour 15 mins)
- Monday - 10.19 mile stationary bike (60.00 mins)
- Tuesday FIRST EVER GYM SESSION

My first ever gym session (I used the gym in the hotel I was staying in on business) consisted of getting an intro from the personal trainer and then the following:

- 10 mins stationary bike warm up - cardio programme
- 20 mins cross trainer - cross training programme
- 5 mins rowing machine - 750 metres
- 30 mins free weights - bicep, tricep, waist, lats

Sorry if this is all rather self indulgent ladies (and gents) but I am just so proud of myself for being able to do so much in the last week!

Wow! You're working hard and I'm sure it will pay off. Thanks for posting this - it reminds me about my exercise (or...um....lack of....). If you're doing all that exercise, then surely I can get off my bum and take the dog for a 15-20 minute walk, right?

Way to go and keep up the good work! You have great reason to be proud of yourself!!

Thanks Doreen! If I can inspire people to get a bit of exercise done, then my work is done he he!

I am usually really bad with trying to fit exercise in - I would much rather be watching TV or X-stitching - but I realise now that the last stone wont come off all by itself!

Hope your dog walking goes well!!!

(Hoping to get 10 miles on the bike done tonight....)

Awesome job! Keep up the great work.

That is so cool that you got to use the personal trainer from the hotel! That is a great way to get some good advise!
