Exercise: 15 min. on the 'mill, started getting a pain in my leg so I hit the recumbent bike for 30 min. set to level 7.
Notes: The recumbent bike: who knew?? It feels like nothing at first, and then the burn starts slow.... you really feel it in your glutes. Dang. Also, there is a really fancy one and you can plug your iPod into it. BONUS! I had a good day today, feel really good that I went to the gym even if I didn't do weights (I didn't have enough time.) Good day eating-wise, except I was busy at work so lunch fell by the wayside. I did pack some snacks, so I didn't get too off-track. All in all feeling good. Yeah, good!
Cool, I want to try the recumbent bike! Is it in the
ReplyDeletemain gym or in the hall?
I got Dave started as beginner Treadmillionaire today...
let him in on your peanut butter rice cake before gym tip.
He thought it was great help to get him through his first
workout before having breakfast.
The recumbent bike is in the hallway!
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome, and I AM SO JEALOUS you have Dave on the bandwagon! Glad my pre-gym snack worked for him too.
