So last week I’d written about how I’d not really managed to get to the gym the week before, but last week I totally managed 3 times. I had hoped to hit it hard 4 times but it just didn’t happen.
On Monday night I did a Les Mills body pump class and no other than Kelly, my PT was taking the class so I had to work my arse off! I’m not saying I did an amazing job as it was super tough and you’ve got to do it a couple of times to gauge the weights which work for you. Having said that, I really enjoyed it and I actually ached for about 4 days afterwards, so I must’ve done something right.
I managed the gym on Thursday and did my programme which again seemed to be really tough. Maybe because I’d had those few days off but I really struggled, though I did persevere and push through – no pain, no gain right?
And Sunday I was hoping for a spin session followed by doing my programme, but I only managed the spin. It was so tough, and we barely sat down throughout. It was full of some seriously tough hill climbs, hovers and sprints. As soon as I got off the bike I knew I wouldn’t be able to do much else at the gym which is a shame as I’d really have loved to get that in there last week, especially as I didn’t get to play netball this week either.
I’ve upped my water intake and have found it easier with the sports bottle as I mentioned last week so that’s a positive. I’m also thinking of starting to take supplements so I can up my protein and keep on with the weights.
I think it’s almost time for me to get my measurements taken and I can’t say I think they’re going to be any different which is a shame – I’ll keep you updated!
