Day 2 - Feeling Good

Barbara on November 9th, 2007

Wow, what a day :) My program started off with a 5 minute warmup on the rower and then off to the weights section of the gym. I did 3 sets of decline presses which I have never done before. Had to laugh when all the blood rushed to my head (which was after I put my legs in the wrong spot and hit my head on the bar LMAO). Was an interesting exercise though and I felt good afterward so that’s the main thing. I powered through the rest of the program and was back at the gym at 7.30pm for my cardio workout - did a 5km run and WASN’T puffed!! I had a decent sweat and was dying to go to the loo but I was so pleased with myself - considering a year ago I couldn’t run to the letterbox and back without needing a rest LOL. If I feel this good after program 1 then I can’t wait to see how I feel after program 2.
