That I get addicted to the adrenaline high and want to keep exercising. :) Maggie - well if I can, you can. Although it helps that mostly it's just me and my trainer there at the time. :) Dee - Go on!!! You can do it!!! Gemisht - blisters????? I hope my trainer doesn't make me do that much lifting!!!! I have one very sore wrist today though which is a little bit concerning. Lulu - It's suprising how easy it is to turn an ankle. At least that's what I find. Tracy - It sounds like a few of us could form an "unco-ordinated club" here. I wonder how a chain of gyms strictly for the unco-ordinated and unfit would go???? Keep up with the walking. You'll be glad you did! I figure the only way from here is up. :) Sharon - How does the first Wednesday after the holidays sound???? Cat - thankyou. I feel better now. :) It's amazing how heavy they get after a number of lifts too! Meg - That’s what I’m hoping. That I get addicted to the adrenaline high and want to keep exercising. :)

I can see I'm going to have to get off my backside soon, or suffer the jealousy when I see you looking gorgeous (even MORE gorgeous that is!) Sharon. Good on you Jodi!

You should've seen me when I started going to aerobics! I've just started walking again, after a long break. I'm embarrassed at how terribly unfit I felt the first few days. Who knew you could be stiff from a 20 minute walk!!!??? I reckon I could go for the most uncoordinated person in a gym too! You should’ve seen me when I started going to aerobics!

I'm with Meg - watch out for the adrenaline high, its very addictive. If you are going to do a fair bit of weights get yourself some gym gloves. They really save your hands from getting blisters while you are not used to the bar rubbing in your hands - one of the best investments for the gym I ever made. And when I first started doing Body Pump classes I used to do all the weights bits with just the bar. Then I gradually added the weights, and different amounts for different muscle groups. And yes, you will be amazed at which bits can hurt. Often going downstairs was more painful than walking up the stairs. Enjoy it though, it is great. I wish I really had the time and the schedule to get back to the gym. Maybe one day......... I’ll fight you for the most uncoordinated in the gym :) And good for you for going.

Isn't it amazing how many muscles the human body has (and how much they can ache)? Just watch out for that "adrenalin high" - believe me it can become addictive ;) Lightening,
