A Gym & a Job

So, I now have a gym and a job. I already told you about the job, researching & developing a webpage for Tabasco business, but now I can tell you all about my little gym. It´s only a few blocks from the house, half mile max, which means that I can walk to it when I please. I do not have to beg someone to go with me or wait around until Juan Carlos is going to play basketball. I can go when I want :) Also, it was $25 for a one month unlimited membership and the guy who runs the gym (well, he and his wife) started me off with a program and worked with me both days that I have gone. For this gym, having someone tell you what machines to use and how long and in what order is helpful. The gym is small and the equipment is well... not 2008 edition. The treadmill isn´t even electric people, so I still can´t really run anywhere, but at least there is a bike and an older version of the cross-trainer. Oh, and did I mention that there is no AC? Yeah.... so within like 5 minutes I am drenched in sweat, but who cares it makes me feel as if I am acomplishing something. Haha

So, my little program (which I like so far) is:

15 minutes on the bike (moving my hands every 5 minutes to three spots on the handle bars)
10 minutes walking on the treadmill (which is really difficult since it´s at an incline and not electric)
10 minutes of this thing where you twist your body to work your obliques and quads
10 minutes of the cross-trainer
Then, pilates/abs but Felipe puts you through the routine.

Well, that´s what I did on Monday. Yesterday I focused mostly on some cardio since it was my day of ¨rest¨.

At least, I have a gym and a job to keep my sanity.
