Getting the parents in shape

Hey reader. This weekend included teaching my mother to work out properly for the first time. She does well when she knows what to do, but let her loose in a gym by herself and she might as well be lost in a forest. We both got in a pretty good workout in, but it was kind of funny. We looked like a before and after ad for the gym.

I have some time off at the end of the week, so I know I've been saying this for a while, but I'm optimistic that I will get to the gym for some of the group classes they offer. Cardio kickboxing and yoga are at the top of my list.


So everything is going along like I hoped. I've gained some muscle weight, which always looks good, and the cardio training is definitely paying off.

Until next time, set goals and just go!

New and Old

Hey reader. Yesterday was pretty cool. I was able to take my workout partner to my new gym to give me some extra motivation. It's nice to workout with someone with opposite strengths (she's pretty good at cardio, while I'm constantly correct her lifting form). I got to use their treadmills for the first time, and between the ipod jack, and the small cable tv, I approve.

I realize this post isn't especially exciting, but I've been really busy and haven't had the chance to try anything new in a while. I see a break coming up for me at the end of next week, so I'll try to have more to post about then.

Until next time, keep going! you can do it!

New Gym

Hey reader. I know it's been a while, but  there hasn't been anything new or interesting to report on. Today that changed. My family just signed up for L.A. Fitness memberships. I don't really think they will be going too often, but this may have just replaced my after school workouts three times a week.

I'm not getting paid or anything, but I have nothing but nice things to say. Their facilities are beautiful, and they have all the equipment I could ask for, and much more. Plus all the classes are free. I'm psyched. 

I'll be sure to keep posting about all the cool new stuff I'm trying, and it's nice to be writing again.

Until next time, mix it up a little!
