susandennisRosie was there this morning - working around the gym doing this and doing that. I was doing my exercises as usual BUT it really felt like those study halls when the teacher was monitoring... 'heads on your own papers!' 'back straight!' 'no talking!' 'toes forward!' She actually only really came up and coached me one time - very nicely and very gently but I knew she was there so I was on my best behavior.
Turns out having two days of homework between class is just perfect. I have 'class' on Saturday and then Sunday and Monday and Wednesday and Friday I do treadmill or rowing or bike. Tuesdays and Thursdays I repeat, on my own, what she showed me on Saturday. Tuesdays are awkward. It takes lots of times to even get whatever it is correct and then I do a few reps correctly. Thursdays is much better. My body has it figured out so the reps are more true.
Saturday, I'll go back ready to show her how easy it all is now and she'll have some torture to add. Last week I finally got one bit going perfectly and she added 8 pound weights. You can't really trust her.
But, I'm done for the day and now, if you need me, look in the shower.
