On Tuesday night I went back to the gym and spin fit. I wanted to try my new workout – 5 sets of 5 reps with heavier weights and it went much better than I expected. I did the same sorts of workouts, only I did them in this order: legs, back, chest, abs, arms.
The bench press was pretty hard, as was the shoulder press and it was hard keeping count of the sets, but I’m sure I’ll get used to it.

1 hour in the gym: 480 calories….
Then I went to Spin fit for the first time in a few weeks. Back to helen, new tracks and a new set. I was gutted when I realised my foot wouldnt allow me to ‘run’ (where you hold your body up and push all your weight through your feet…but did spinning instead which was ok. The bikes were a discgrace – first there weren’t enough, then when they finally got enough some didnt work. The one i was on, the resistance was stuck so helen got spanners out to fix it…. it ceased half way through, so I went on another which was too big for me and I was too sweaty (hands) to change the seat height. grrrr. nevermind. It should be easier next week. 🙂
Spin fit: 600 cals.
