Pretty Boring

I went to the gym yesterday and today. Yesterday was purely cardio. Today I did cardio and chest (my least favorite).


I got to the gym and went to the locker room. I was getting my stuff together when I realized, I forgot my ear buds at home. GREAT. At least I had my Kindle. I took it, my phone, my towel and my water and headed up to do my cardio. That was the most boring hour of cardio I have done in a while. It felt so long, like it was just dragging on and on. I tried watching some of the T.Vs they have mounted on the walls, but that was pretty much just reading with moving pictures (no sound, just subtitles). I focused mostly on my book, " The Total Money Makeover".  I think it's by Dave Ramsey. Of course, it wasn't very easy to read with the two chatter boxes behind me. I'm not bothered by people talking at the gym, after all it's not a library. I am bothered by people who feel the need to talk loud enough so that we can all hear every detail of the conversation. I usually try to avoid the area these two women are in, but today I didn't have a choice. I also cannot stand it when people talk loudly on their cellphones in the middle of the gym. Go to the locker room.


After my cardio I put my kindle and phone back into my locker and hit the machines. Everything seemed harder today than usual. I didn't change anything, I just did my workout and counted down the sets until I was done. Tomorrow I go back for Back workouts. My other least favorite. I'm okay with leg days.


Ben finally pulled me aside to schedule my next appointment. Next Tuesday. Dangit! I wish I would have pushed for Thursday. Oh well, at least I'm getting 'a' day. I mentioned to him that I would like to learn some exercises with resistance bands. I plan on using them on my vacation. I am actually dreading being without a gym for a week. I'm going to have to walk A LOT while I am on vacation. It helps that we are going to Charleston and Holiday World. Both require a full day of walking.
