Whoa! new Gym

Rowing Machine 22.06.16 GL

Decided to try a new gym and this morning, 5 day free trial at Goodlife Cleveland, have basically decided to go to Healthworks but thought I should just give this one a go for the five days and see.  Tuesday like normal hit the gym at Cleveland and pump class to boot. I had forgotten how tough the class was.

Bit of a gym review – nice surroundings painted up flashy colours looking nice and bright.  Nice modern machines like the ones at ifeelgood gym that I used to go to til last week.  I could still drive there from new house but doesn’t really offer too much – was supposed to get regular (6monthly) programs but after 18 months nothing…… The only thing that kept me there this long was the encouraging words from Chris a trainer there – it was greatly appreciated – amazing how far some positive words go for your clients.  Doing well Morgs, trimming up looking great.  Man that sounds great when you are working so hard – thanks Chris.

Day 1 of five – pump class – tough it was

Now wait for the barrage of phone calls and sales harassment – it is expected from this gym it is how they operate and which is what turns me off – anyway have to try it…..

    Day 2 at new Gym – not suffering separation anxiety like I did when my previous gym closed after 5 years of attending on and off. Motivation was the on off thing….

    Normal workout for Tuesday
    Xtrainer for warm up 10 mins and 100cals
    Rowing machine for a blast 150 cals 🙂
    punching bag thingo on an elastic string
    Treadmill for 24 mins burnt 250 cals

    Nice – there is a lot more energy here feels ok

    But will be tying Health works next week for 5 day trial

    Have a good day
    Cheers

    Holy Dooley cycle class today dam had forgotten what that was like :-)—— I am only just starting to be able to walk after Tuesdays Pump class

    Was a 45 – 50 minute Cycle class – was good surely burnt good calories I put 110% effort in as I do or at least try to do with everything. I think I am going to stick with the two classes on top of my normal routine at the gym.

    I did get on the treadmill for five minutes after to warm down.

    I must say I am feeling fairly comfortable at this gym

    Have a fantastic day 🙂
    Cheers

    Sent a message to the other Gym Health Works to see if I can get a five day free trial there but haven’t had a reply as yet. Might go there this morning and talk to someone.

    Have a great Saturday everyone
