Friday fitness update

I’m starting to sound like a broken record after last week’s entry where I commented on how tough its been to get into the swing of things post-holiday, but there was no helping it this week.

Work had me so busy I actually had to cancel a gym session with my trainer, but it could not be avoided so there was no gym on Wednesday. Between the snowstorm and work I managed to only get to the gym twice, but realistically only one of those visits was a viable work out. My abbreviated run on Sunday was depressing to be perfectly blunt. My running mojo from a couple of weeks ago has apparently run off without me. Since there’s not much to say about my run, I’ll focus on today’s work out with Stu at the gym. I had a good 1 hour session – we focused on shoulders and triceps. Because I worked out during lunch, we had our pick of the gym and there was no waiting nor modifying the work out to compensate for the post-holiday gym crowd. There were no new milestones nor was it a killer work out that will leave me achey tomorrow, but it was a solid session that definitely challenged me and was much needed after a week not getting to the gym.

  1. Hello Anonymous,I have not used the push up product, but looking at it – I'm not quite certain that it would help with ones joints.

  2. The model in one of the photos you selected for this post appears to be using a product called Perfect Pushup. I am curious as to whether you have any experience using this device and also your opinion of it.I thought it was another infomercial gimmick until recently. Some ultra-fit collegians I know at Carnegie-Mellon in Pittsburgh tell me that it really saves wear and tear on the joints.I'm no longer a collegian, and I have never been ultra-fit. I need all the help I can get.Your opinion will be valued.

  3. Working out is difficult to get motivated for and getting into the right mindset is hard BosGuy. If I didn't have our gym equipment at home I'd never get to the gym. Just keep trying to do the best you can.

  4. I agree with A Lewis. Good for you. Props for going on your lunch. I wish I was able to do that and still have time to shower and be back at work. I hate public showers though. Blegh.

  5. The "Swing of Things" is a very difficult place to get….and even more difficult a place to stay. Good for you. On that note, I'm on my way to yoga.
