Who's Exercising?

Great post Gus!

1. I get a sense of well being during and post workout. (It's what chocolate and ice cream used to do for me... lol!)
2. I'm old and know I'm not getting any younger and don't want to be a feeble old person in diapers one day!
3. There are many out of shape thin people, I want to stay a fit thin person! It's nice to have an edge!
4. My friends at the gym call me everyday, sometimes twice to see when I'm coming in. It's a FUN group! Sorta like my Cheers!
5. Size 2/4 is my icing!

Aloha-

I hadn't exercised in almost 20 years, and even before that it was sporadic. Now I work out EVERY day. Cardio daily, and weights 4-6 days per week.
I am mixing up the cardio now that I can move better- new classes I tried in the last 2 weeks and loved are cardio kickbox and Tae-Boot ( combo Tae Bo and Boot Camp). I will do anything not to miss Garvity Class ( Circuit class with the gravity machines and cardio). I still swim 1-3 days per week but now I am selective and only go if the weather is nice! This week I plan on trying Yoga for my inflexible body.....ugh!

Why do I do it?

1) I love the way my muscles look and feel so empowered being a strong woman.
2) I sleep better, and my mood is more even keeled.
3) I am setting a good example for others in my WLS group- several have now joined gyms, and my club gives me free passes to hand out at my support group meetings.

I get some walking in, but we should have our taxes back next week and I am getting a nice bycycle, so I can pedal my a$$ around town...lol I also have my mp3 player that I can wear while riding.
