Gym Report

[susandennis]

Normally, Mondays are my day off from the gym but tomorrow is Chef Anita day and I need the extra time to get more work done and make sure and be here when she gets here... so I went in today.

30 minutes on the treadmill. It wasn't horrible and it wasn't great. But, it's done.

And I pondered the Nadia issue. I've paid her for sessions through mid-April but after that, I think I'm going to switch for a while. There's a class on Thursday afternoons that is 1/2 exercise and 1/3 spinning. I used to attend but stopped because I just hate the bike part. Today I asked Tija if she would ask the teacher if I could do 1/2 the class - the exercise half. (I'd ask her myself but if there is some reason why it would annoy her or something, I didn't want to put her on the spot.)

So I think I might start doing that and then, when my Nadia sessions run out just not renew them. I think. If I get the ok before then, I might just start this week! A class with other people and a different teacher might just be a nice change.

For what it is worth I will joyfully ride hours on a bicycle but half an hour spinning is just freakin' work. So I'm with you on that.

plus the classroom bikes have rock hard seats that are about the size of a banana. my ass on those bikes is like trying to thread a needle with a marshmallow.

That's why I do a reclining bike-- won't ride on a bike seat with a fork. I have an EasySeat on my real bike, but it won't fit the exercise bikes, and switching would be too much hassle anyway.

I seem to have settled into reclining bike; elliptical or cross country ski machine; treadmill. Hoping that when spring comes I'll be able to go miles and miles on my bike nearly right away!
