Update

It's been awhile, so here's the latest and greatest in my workout world.

SO- I DID IT!!!!! I made it to the gym 3 times last week. I went for the 3rd time on Monday.

Of course, Jason Priestly was there to greet me. He looked at my name on the computer after I swiped my card and said, "Have a good one Julie". It just made me feel uncomfortable. I like to pretend that I'm invisible at the gym- no one can see me sweating, panting, dropping things, trying to figure out how the machines work... the list of my gym blunders goes on.

Anyways- I opted for the dreaded treadmill. I walked, but then got motivated to run. So I pumped up the speed and ran for 15 minutes. WHOOO HOOOO! I have to admit, after minute 8, I was about ready to kill myself, but I trudged on for another little while. Then I finished up with a little walking. Total 30 mins on the treadmill, and I believe I burned 200+ calories.

Then, in an effort to firm the tush, I decided to conquer the StairMaster for 10 mins. Not bad- I like the StairMaster because I feel the burn. Then, it was off to do some arm weights.

So, what are the goals for this week?

- Go to the gym 3x/week and inform my enforcer of scheduled gym days.
- Add 3 minutes to my cardio workout dujour
- Research new arm/weight exercises

It's not looking like I'm going to make it to the gym until later in the week- so wish me luck!!!
