    O, ditto! I raised the weight on my lifting schedule. it's funny how just 5 little pounds can change everything!!!

    And this morning....wow! 4 mph at a 3.5 incline really targets the glutes!!!

    Have a great day!!!

    I got really erked at this guy at the gym...

    I usually do a mile around the track to get started. Well, I did my mile and after that, I had planned on getting on the elliptical. There are only four of them and they were all occupied. I saw that two of ladies had about 11 minutes left. So I decided to do another 1/2 mile around the track and come back. Well, I get back and one of the ladies bumped hers up another 15 minutes, and the other one had about 2 minutes left. So I decided I could wait the two minutes. She gets off and goes looking for the sanitizer to wipe everything down, so I continue to stand there and wait for her to do her thing. It's completely obvious (to me) that I'm waiting for the machine. Well, this guy starts walking towards me, and we locked eyes for a second... Then he practically cuts off the lady that was on her way back to wipe it down, gets on, starts it up and away he went. 292.gif

    I gave up on waiting for it and did some strength training instead, then got on the bike for 30min. I have a hard time getting my heart rate up on the bike though, that's why I wanted to get on the elliptical. Oh well, at least I did burn off some calories, right?

    Good night, what a jerk. That's why I like to be one of the first there! I don't have to fight for a spot!!

    I have that problem with weight lifting though. I'm pretty impatient, so I'll either ask if I can jump in on their circuit or siwtch up my routine so I can get everything without having to lose momentum.

    Well I had a rough week. Fay shut down the gym for two days, but that didn't matter because I ended up getting a nice sinus/cold thing that is finally going away. So I missed out on four days of gym time. The good thing is, I didn't gain any weight, but I didn't lose anything either. But I am feeling better and have been back to the gym since Monday.

    Hope all is well.

    Third time on the elliptical...EVER? Really? Good for you!!! Keep it up! 13.gif How long have you had it? I wish I had one at home, but I wouldn't know where to put it. We live in a cramped townhouse right now. Besides, I'm not sure if I would have the willpower to actually get on it myself at home. When I go to the gym, I know what I'm there for and I can stay focused. At home...I'm not sure if I could stay focused long enough at home.
