fit tested
so today was our fit test at the gym. the guy who did the testing seemed like he was roid-angry. he was definitely one of those fired up my way or the highway kinds of fitness guys. he was also all of 25 maybe. i just hope that he's not like that with everyone or he's scaring off the gym's customers. the husband says the guy was just a fitness zealot.
the good news is that i'm on the right track. i still am very flexible and my cardio health is good.
the bad news is that the amount of fat i have in my body is pretty much the same as the bulldog's weight. not good at all. but i'm doing something about it.
according to the testing, the husband and i both lost weight this week. he is down 10 lbs. i have lost 5 so far. pretty good if you ask me. of course, i have 17 more to go. the funny thing is i lost them twice already but they always seem to find me again. apparently, at least according to the zealot, the fat cells are always with you. you are born with them and they puff up as you store fat. the idea is to deflate them. at least he gave me something to visualize as i run. squishing fat cells.
we decided to sign up for some personal training and on monday at 7 am we're meeting henry. for 14 sessions henry is going to help us to learn what we need to do to be healthier and more fit. hopefully, henry is patient with me. but i guess he will be since it's in his best interest to keep us coming. the husband loves the weights. me not so much, but i'll do it because i know that down the road i will be a lot better off if i'm strong.
the guy who is the fitness centre manager was a lot more realistic than the roid-head. he emphasized making small changes and having one day off to cheat. he is a pro volleyball player in his spare time so you know he knows how to have fun.
anyway, we are both doing pretty well in our new year. beyond detoxifying my body and getting fit, i am detoxifying my life and getting my spirit fit. i am cutting loose a long time friend who is very negative and very manipulative. she is a taker and i am tired of giving. but i have already been slowly easing her out of my life. now it's just time to give her the old heave ho.
