I Survived Gym!!

After a near 6-week absence from the gym, I finally returned to the Happy House Of Torture. With Doc's advice in mind, I headed for the area which no one will see me go before my injury....the treadmills & machines section. Being a regular group exercise groupie, I brace myself for another 4 wks of boredom. I survived a 1-hour workout with almost no strain on my bad ankle & hey, it didn't swell up as I feared it would.

Even though I have limited workout options, I'm glad that I can do something to strengthen my legs & at the same time keep the rest of my 40-year-old body from the effects of gravity. I know it'll be hard to watch others do my fave RPM, BodyJam, BodyCombat & BodyPump tracks...but I guess I'll have to wing it for the time being.

Thanks for visiting us! I've just finished a huge project and am aiming for the gym at lunchtime. I just know it's going to kill me :-)
