Wed & Thurs 30th & 31st January

Wednesday
With another gym induction session tomorrow I thought I'd better consolidate what I'd learnt already and as I really don't like being indoors when the sun is shining I swapped the early spinning class for the gym instead. I still seemed to spend too long working out instructions but 'rowed' 2000m in 11minutes, did 30 'repeats' on 3 different weight machines and 10 minutes 'random/climbing' on the treadmill at 4mph - so felt I acheived something in the hour. A lovely half hour relaxing in the sauna afterwards was my reward.


Thursday
My good intentions yesterday weren't necessary - Christian greeted me at 11am and said I didn't really need to learn much more, given my reasons for joining the gym - ie preparing for my bike ride. So I continued with my consolidation alone! Plenty of apparatus to choose from without repeating any of yesterday's, I alternated CV (cardio-vascular) machines with weights and felt a little more confident by the time my hour was up. Where else but the sauna to finish off an energetic morning?!
