The Self Challenge
Saw this on Good Morning America the other day and thought I'd share:
Go to www.self.com and register for the self challenge and you can get 2 free week VIP membership at your local Gold's gym. I figure -- what the heck. I've got two weeks before I go back to work and Gold's have some workout machines in their facility that aren't in the apartment complexes fitness center. So hey ya'll -- let's give this a try -- its only going to cost us some time and will help those who feel as if they've fallen off the wagon get back on.
I will be back on here on Friday, March 9th after my trip to Gold's and I will have an update as to their process. Yes, I know they are going to try and sell me a membership -- I've been a member with them before but because I moved away there wasn't one close to me. However, the word NO is definitely in my vocabulary and I'm not a sucker they will see coming.
Okay so who's up for the self challenge -- after all we had the surgery or lapband for ourselves -- didn't we.
Holler,
Yeah Heather
I printed out my Gold's Gym coupon and took it to the facility this morning and got me a pass for the next almost 5 months. Since I have two weeks of medical leave, that's what I'll be doing for the next few weeks.
I didn't receive any pressure or anything to purchase a membership; however, that might not be true at other Gold's Gym
Getting ready for my sister's wedding in June and I'm going to look good. They haven't seen me in about 2 years and they were apprehensive about my having the surgery. I sent them a picture of me from this past New Year's Eve party so they are definitely going to be surprised about who they see --their heads will spin
This was my workout today:
10 minutes on the stationary bike = 3.60 miles
Hip abduction and adduction system 10 reps each
Leg Press --this is the free weight machine where you lay at an incline and push up on the weights --this system works the quads, glutemus maximus and hamstrings. It also works a portion of the lower abdomen --these are areas that I'm going to have to work on HARD!
I have there group exercise calendar and I'm going to see which ones I want to try tomorrow. Let's go ya'll
