WOW: Almost off-ed myself when I tried to get move from one of

Mar 31, 2010

Good Am and PM Fellow Michiganders and any one else lurking.

Woke up at 530 am and met my niece at the Bally's at 620 am. We did the recumbent bikes for 30 minutes then she had to go to get her kid off to school and get to work. She is just trying to get back in to an exercise routine after being AWOL from the fitness world.  I stayed and  did 30 more minutes on the elliptical  and some weight training.

Almost off-ed myself when I tried to get move from one of the weight machines after finishing my sets. The one that you sit facing the machine and have the handle bars on a pulley that you pull down and up above your head.  Your not supposed to let the weights bang together when you Finnish. so I was holding the bar while trying to stand up so the weight would not clang together.  I lost my balance and stumbled backwards and almost fell on my keister. But I held on to that handle bar and ended up in a crouched down position and then stood up (sort of like I did a deep knee bend while holding the bar). Another lady Thought I was doing some kind of new exercise routine. LOL  Whew.
After I looked  the W. machine I notice that it was  not bolted to the floor.
Hey that's not funny, had this been before Stitch was born I would have fallen and probably pulled the whole thing down on top of my self.  And made a big spectacle of my self.
Come to think of it, I was afraid of that happening and being embarrassed, more than I was about falling.

I can visualize it now {Hey call 911 the Fat old lady fell on the floor and broke the weight machine too} Thank goodness for WLS and Stitch.

To boot, I am now feeling the burn from all that exercise I did. LOL including the extra Deep knee bend.
