So I have been up since 7 this morning. Our dog seems to always choose me to be his morning buddy. Probably because my husband can sleep through - anything. Especially a 70 lb. Lab sitting on him. I can not. Especially when I am sore.
So last night I went to the gym and took Chris with me. I worked out like a woman with a mission. Which I am but that doesn't mean a girl has to get all crazy.
Yet I did...
Let me put this way, this is my first time in a gym.
EVER.
Never been on a treadmill.
EVER.
I was going faster than the very fit woman jogging next to me. Who later commented on what a power walker I was. My legs are fine.
My abs on the other hand...
I used this thing where you sit and basically bend forward lifting weight at the same time.
For some reason I am under the misconception I am an athlete.
I decided 3 reps of 30 at 50lbs. - would be wise.
Not today.
Oh and if you do a thing called the hip abduction - wear pants.
So what have we learned?
Sick as this sounds - I like working out. Love it in fact. Oh and try to work out in pants.
I am sore but it felt awesome pounding on that treadmill. My stress from work gone.
And I have frickin' strong legs! :)

Well, exercising can be a huge energy rush... however, it takes energy to get it in gear to get going in the first place. It is another example of mind over matter. I am glad that you have the energy to get to the gym... I'll see your offer of a Packer game and raise you a cold pack of Merkt's Cheese.
Merkt's cheese as my husband would say is the good.
Let's start planning!
