Gym numbers
Dec. 29th, 2007 07:41 pmMy company decided to buy us all gym membership as a perk; the gym is conveniently located between the office, which is three minutes from my house, and the centre of town, so I really have no excuse not to go.
I was Assessed and given an exercise schedule; I'm writing it down here to demonstrate my unfitness to the gym-visiting parts of the watching world, and because it is less likely to be lost as an LJ post than as a bit of blue card in a poorly-organised box file in the gym, and in the hope that I might be able to look back in December next year and marvel at how small the weights I could lift in 2007 were, and with how few reps.
( Exercise schedule )
Running on the treadmill makes my knee hurt within a minute; walking on the treadmill, or using the elliptical machines or the stepping machine, makes me sweat, and my heart rate rise from 140 to 170 over ten minutes, but my knee's OK.
