hope those blood tests come back negative for anything Sam.
Sorry, I know you've asked me how I was getting on at the gym but I thought I'd give it a month before I reported in! So, I've been going three times a week for six weeks now and have definately been feeling some benefit from it. My bad arthritic knee has felt a lot easier so the research I did and the advice I took from a GP neighbour is definately correct - keep the muscles in the calf and thigh strong. I barely feel my bad knee playing up now when I do a lond walk.
I know Destiny will be interested in what machines I'm using so I'll make a proper note of what they're called next time I go, but I'm doing all leg and arm ones at the mo - its a regime the trainer up there gave me to do to begin with.
That is great news, Christine. Way to go, and I'm very happy it's working out for you.
Yep, I would love to here the names of the exercise machines, but no rush.
I'll be getting the last machines from my friends house next Saturday. Then I'll post the proper names of all my machines, what they do exactly, as well as photos of them all.
So, some good news for me . . . When it's time for my pool to be covered for winter, my friend from across the street said that I can be her guest at the gym she goes to. We have around five or so gyms in this little city, and 3-4 are popular. They're well known. Well, the gym she uses is The National Fitness Center of America. I've seen it a lot. It's just a few blocks away. It's freakin' huge. There's every machine you can think of, with personal large screen tvs, and headphones. There's a basketball court, indoor running track, indoor Jr olympic size pool, jacuzzis, saunas, steamrooms, ropes, heavy bags, speed bags, weights, and more . . . Hot damn!!! If I truly like it, I'll buy a month of visits, for 34.00. My daughter will be my guest. If it works out nicely, I'll go until I can open my own pool back up. This is going to be great.
