    I've been out of the gym for a couple of weeks, but I've been walking with the dog regularly. Back at it this week.

    Happy New Year, Kids.

    Had a false start with my training build last week, due to a lingering sinus infection. Needed to take a full week off.

    Just about over the sinus stuff, so I'm really looking forward to getting after it in prep for an April race.

    Went back to classes last night. There was a new instructor who also does personal training (lifting!). We are scheduled to meet tomorrow before class. Yay! This young man used to compete in body building and has gotten his trainers certification. Maybe, just maybe this guy might work out for me. So excited! Not that I want to get into body building competitions, but I do want to continue to strength train properly.

    Anyway, tabata class was good and am feeling it today. :)

    I've just joined the gym and the PT there has got me doing tabata workouts. You don't realise how hard you've worked till the next day 😂

    I remember when I was super-duper excited about strength-training....I want to get re-connected with that "feeling"...and QUICKLY!

    Mind you, after 5 months of tough-tough workload and heavy hours, I am FINALLY coming down with a horrid head-cold. I know it is horrid because my teenager came down with it on Saturday and my husband on Sunday and I've been watching the horror of it inside my house....hoping that I did not fall ill. But, I did.

    Hey kids, I guess it is something in the air as everyone around me has some kind of cold and/flu symptoms. Ugh. Sdereski, I hope you enjoy the strength training. I swear I wished I had listened to my own gut when other's discouraged me from doing it. People had me believing if I lifted heavy I would be a female version of Arnold Schwarzenegger. Lesson learned that's for sure. When I get that serious burst of energy I complete 2 programs in a day. Today was that day. I completed my squat and bench programs. Cryotherapy you say; ugh yes. Beeps, hope you and yours feel better.
