Sunday Funday!

I recently signed up for a cross training gym because I found that me exercising on my own was NOT cutting it. My gym is well out of my price range, but my price range is a $10 membership at Planet Fitness. But, after years of no results, I realized you get what you pay for. After a free trial class at my gym I was hooked on the cross training idea and saw how much better of a workout I got and how much harder I tried when a trainer was leading me through a strength and cardio routine. I literally drip sweat when I work out now. I used to go to the gym all the time in college but thought the towels were only for the guys lifting heavy in the downstairs gym I was too afraid to go to. Now I grab one as soon as I walk in and use it during every recovery.

Today was my fourth week going and even though it is getting easier, it is still challenging. I am increasing my weights, but I still notice how I struggle more than some of the other people in the class. What I like most about cross training and specifically my gym is that it actually is a judge free zone. Everyone is at different fitness levels but you just do your best. The really fit people make you push yourself harder and the trainers are always there to help you with your form and motivate you. Even though I have to budget a little wiser every month, I love my gym and it's really helping me.

I always feel like Sundays are the hardest days which I like. It really sets me up for the start of the work week and I get the rest of my day to come home, relax, take a long shower, and watch Game of Thrones.  



ENJOY G.O.T! This week is probably going to be pretty crazy.
