My pre training training continues. Last night I went back to the gym for another date with the treadmill. This time I ran for a little more than 15 minutes. I’m just trying to build myself a base right now and I gotta say that 15 minutes felt like FOREVER, and I couldn’t catch my breath. That was a tough 15 minutes. Hoping it starts to get easier soon.
I also had another date with the personal trainer. This time was a little better. We didn’t do so many damn squats so I can actually move my legs today. We actually did more upper body work, which was a little bit embarrassing. My lack of arm strength is just silly. Laughable really. We were doing pushups with my arms more in, to isolate the triceps. I could get down low, but when it came to actual pushing up, I would sort of just collapse onto my face. I’ve known for a while that I have a total lack of upper body strength and I always tell myself I should do more pushups. Sometimes I go on a pushup kick, where I’ll do them daily for about a week, but I usually get discouraged and stop trying. If I don’t attempt pushups, I can’t tell how much I suck at them, right? I know. That’s not an actual solution, but it’s worked for a while.
On another note, anyone catch the Mad Men premiere? I’m so glad it’s back! Sunday nights haven’t been the same.
