The Gym

Ahh…..the gym almost did me in today. I guess lying around the house eating every ten minutes is not exactly a special k challenge. My favorite thing to do was cardio. I now find cardio doing me.

I was on my favorite machine for less than ten minutes, but one look at me you would have guessed ten hours. To top my first trip back after 5 months off I went with one of my dearest friends who I believe is secretly a personal trainer. She tried to take me out I believe with all my heart.

The thread mill which should have been an easy one for me to nail turned out to be a death trap waiting. My dear friend you know the personal trainer wannabe. Decides I wasn’t moving to her beat of the drum and sped me up 10 times what I’m use to. She had me climbing mountains, doing Olympic races and all to think she wasn’t even getting paid. I really thought it was the end and then the cool down came I could taste the relief I was sweating for the relief. I thought to soon because I suddenly seen a hand reach over and turn my cool down into a fast warm up that lasted far too long for my legs.

In the end my trip to the gym was the end of a fat vacation I was happily enjoying. No more lying around the house stuffing my face. Yes. Yes those days are over I’m back in cardio heaven. The 100 plus calories I burned off got me wanting to see it to the end and yes I will soon see you again gym.
