My new partner……..

granny working out 

Yesterday,  I joined the Fitness Center.  They finally finished constructing the building  right here close to our house.  No more excuses!!!!  Yes, its full of our senior mates.  They are going to become my best friends!!  There are tons of retired people that live out here.  Michael has been hearing for awhile now how there has been a need for a facility out here. So, ETMC (where Michael works) has taken care of that problem.   Actually,  I have been surprised at the amount of seniors that really get into working out.  I’m starting a water works class on Monday.  It’s Mon - Fri at 8am.  I’m going to give it a try and see how it goes.  My plan is to  follow up with walk/jogging on the treadmill (3-5) miles and using the machines.  I have an appt with one of the trainers on Wednesday.  He is setting up a work out plan designed for me.  I’ve really been wanting to do something for awhile.  I know that it will help me feel better and give me more energy.  Wish me luck. :)))

Okay Chris, to clarify......jogging/walking NOT running. I would love to get to that point. Maybe I should set that as a goal. I finally remembered the name of the gym we were talking about last night. CURVES!! I swear, I'm losing my brain. I hope that your having a great Saturday. ~Dana
