Finally, an update

Well, I have been much more faithful to my schedule since my last post. Three times a week.

I haven't always meet with my trainer for various reasons but still make it into the gym. I always have a much harder workout with her than on my own. I need to work on improving that.

So I have been in this for about eight weeks now. Certainly not a full eight weeks but I have seen some benefits. I have improved on the level of weights on most machines (but haven't kept good track....one MORE thing I need to improve). On the plus side, I've gained a solid five pounds. I think my goal will be about another 25!

Weak week

It was a bad week for me.  I went a full 7(!) days without going to the gym.

I had an appt with Meghan tonight but she had to cancel.  She had set up 3 flexible workouts for me.  I did the arms....but didn't do the full 8 exercises.  I think it is a mix of things.  I'm still not comfortable with every exercise so I tend to do the ones I remember well.

I decided to see if Meghan can adjust our workouts to maximize the number of machines/etc that we use.  Once I get more comfortable, I should be good to go.
