Still rockin' it
I am working away from home but staying in a hotel with a small gym (never been in a gym in my life). Just went in to see how late they open and was TERRIFIED by the sight of loads of young men pumping iron. I almost walked out but then thought "don't be ridiculous- you are a grown woman!".
Went and spoke to the lad on reception and he was really helpful so I am just going to get my workout gear on and go in. This is one of the most scary things I have ever done- I don't know gym etiquette, hate the thought of being stared at and am terrified of using machines I don't understand BUT I am 35 years old- am not going to allow myself to feel intimidated by perfectly nice people whose job it is to help people exercise
That was my own pep talk- wish me luck!!!!!

Moooooo
CP, you don't spend your time in a gym worrying you spend it staring at those young men and having dirty thoughts!
Hope it went well it's a daunting thing the first time but it soon passes in my experience.

Laura- you are absolutely right! 3 seconds of sheer terror followed by 20 minutes on the cross trainer, 15 minutes on the rowing machine and 20 minutes in the pool. I loved it (unfotunately hot boys had dissapeared)
I kept having to stop myself giggling from thinking how wierd it was that I was in a gym or that they were going to all of a sudden realise that I shouldn't be there and say "oy- this isn't for the likes of you"
Loved it- 495 calories burned

Excellent, so glad you enjoyed it and I'm sure you looked right at home. That's a lot of exercise well done.

Defo! It involves movement- especially good for the calvesDoes moshing at gigs count as exercise?

Hello guys, hope you don't mind if I join!
I am EXTREMELY sedate! I used to be quite active, but I was involved with a car crash end of Sept last year, and I'm still suffering with a lot of pain. Also physiotherapist is refusing me to do a lot of things, so I'm only on gentle stretches and walking at the mo. But very keen to step up! not sure what I can do, might fish out the wii again as I used to really love that too! I have Wii fit and Wii active. I think the Wii active might be a bit hardcore, but we'll soon find out hey!!
Lots of love, Caramelle X X X

Ooooh, I'd love to join this!
Yesterday I did a 1 hour pilates class, and cycled for about 2 minutes (on a broken bike, looking for my little brother, who got home just after I left)
I'm in pain today, but I'll keep going!

Allie- I love the thought of a salsa class but have never had the courage to go on my own- how was it?
Carthago (what does that name mean, btw????)- welcome! That pain will soon be a distant memory xxxx
I played badminton last night for 1 hour. Nothing today so far apart from me and OH are going for a chinese later (on plan of course) do you think a walk to the Chinese and pub, then walking back counts??

It's Latin for Carthage must be destroyed.
And I hope so, thank you!
