Things don’t always go as planned
Tonight I was psyched for my HIT cycling class. I went to the gym and it was absolutely dead. Hardly anyone there and the HIT class was cancelled. I made the best of it. After a good stretching, I lifted and did a full body workout. I had to get in my cardio so I became reacquainted with my old friend the step machine. I got in 65 minutes of non-stop cardio, did over 10 thousand steps and burned 750 calories. It was great. Before my workout I got my body fat checked and it went down to 17.5 % Pretty cool.
After being out with a cold and away from the gym, It felt great to be back into the routine again. Doing the cardio got rid of all of my stressors and it gave me a really good mental lift. I worked off all of the guilt that I had from being out of my routine and got centered again. It feels great to be back into my routine.
