in Fitness and Exercise
I posted on here about two months ago wondering what exercise I could do because I was gym phobic, hated exercise and couldn't run or swim. Well last week I joined the gym and I LOVE IT!!!

I've been every day so far and luckily I have a very knowledgeable fiance who is helping me with a programme of cardio and strength training plus teaching me to swim.

I cannot believe how much I enjoy it. As soon as I'm done, I think about when I'm next going to be in there! I know now that the changes I'm making are going to be for life.

    Good for you!

    I had my first visit to a gym for about 30 years last week. Like you I loved it.

    There's so many ways to exercise - so unlike the last time I was in a gym when it was all sweaty men and crashing weights!

    Great stuff.

    To adapt a quote from Oscar Wilde: to fall in love with exercise is the beginning of a life long romance...
