So far, So Good…
I started working out a few weeks ago and I’m now at the point where its part of my normal routine. I now get that odd feeling when I don’t get my usual workout in which makes this a big step for me. I was having a little trouble getting up in the morning but that has also now passed. I feel really good about it now and the workouts are getting much better.
I’m currently working out at 6:00AM before I leave for work but have found it challenging to fit in a meal before I leave for my gym. I hope to get some feedback through this blog on how to overcome this small hurdle. I currently work out in the small gym at my apartment complex. They have a large set of dumbbells and a bench that does flat, decline and incline which has been enough for me to get started.
This morning I felt really comfortable benching the 40lb dumbbells they have on the rack and should soon be at 45lbs which will put me at the highest weight I currently have available. It may be time to join a gym soon and re-adjust both my schedule and workout. This is going to be a challenge for me because I actually don’t like going to gyms and have never kept up a membership to one.
I dread having to dedicate 2hrs+ to the gym with my schedule and don’t feel comfortable working out alone in a large gym. I may try to convince a co-worker to join with me to help break the ice or sign up for a few sessions of personal training.
