Okay, so, since nobody reads this it’s easier to put some details up for posterity.

Sheila and I joined Gold’s Gym here in nashville and I went to the introductory meeting with the trainer (Clint) yetsterday. We went through body fat (27lbs of my current 165lbs) and what my goals are for the next year.

I told him I’m more interested in working things proportionally. I don’t want to look (worst case scenario) like one of those triangle people. All big from the shoulders with bird legs. Though, the more I think about it, I’ve already got the bird legs! I’m halfway there!

We went through a 30 minute workout of some upperbody exercises.

Now, today, I’m sore. Clint did tell me that if I were to wash my hair at some point, I might want to do it before sleeping overnight because I won’t get my arms up high enough. He was partially right, though, in hindsight, I’m glad I washed my hair yesterday.

Today, sans trainer, I put myself on a cardio circuit. After stretching I jumped on a treadmill and walked/ran almost [b]2 miles[/b]! I did run about 3/4 of a mile, the rest was speed walking. Then I got on an exercise bike and did almost [b]6 miles in 15 minutes[/b]. My heartrate at starting was about 105 after a few minutes walking the treadmill. By the time I was running it got up to 160+. On the bike I was able to keep it around 130+.

That’s my log for today. I took pictures yesterday, but not today. Wish me luck with more upperbody tomorrow.
