Gym Is Open (Friday)

I did the 3 times through the circuit weights at the gym this morning, then 15 mins on the stationary bike. I meet with my new trainer tomorrow, so it will be interesting to see how I do on the fit test and what she gives me as a new routine. What did you do to move your body today? Lori

I did 45 minutes on the treadmill. I finally got a CD player that doesn't skip when it gets bumped so I was able to listen my Garth while walking away. Jan

Jan, I couldn't make it without my iPod, it so takes my mind off of the treadmill or the stationary bike. Try recorded books as well. They have them on cd!! Lori

I did 10 excrutiating minutes on the cycle this morning for about 2.5 miles. I say excrutiating because some woman was jogging on one of the treadmills and each time her sneaker his the surface there was this squeak that resounded throughout the gym. It was literally like nails on a blackboard or a dripping faucet. I wanted to claw my own ears off. That's what I get for letting my iPOD shuffle battery run down... If I were in her place, I'd get new shoes or do something. Egads, woman. Don't you hear yourself. I also did all my leg weight machines. Didn't have time to do my stability ball leg workout. Kathy

Kathy, When I first started walking on the treadmill, my shoes squeaked. I finally realized that with the elevation my foot was skidding...took me awhile though... We have a woman at our gym who runs on the treadmill and smells really strong of b.o. She looks clean, wow, it is powerful...she must eat too much garlic or something! Lori

When I said squeak... I meant SQUEAKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK. LOL! Hmmm, there's a dilemma. Which would you prefer... someone who squeaks you out of the gym or stinks you out of the gym? Hmmm. Kathy p.s. Rich told me a man in the locker room today was blow drying his boxers. Rich figures he forgot to pack a fresh pair. Ick!

I don't know, squeak or stink...both are very tough!

I ran a mile on the treadmill at 4.0mph for 15min(1mile). The stepper has been calling for me but I havent been listening. Candy

Candy, You are so funny! Lori
