Yaa, today I'm doing a new class at the gym that I KNOW I can't get confused with..... it's a spin cycle class! All I have to do is sit or stand on a cycle and pedal, ha ha.
I have seen people do this class, it looks hard out, but I will give it my best, and burn some calories. I'm not feeling very enthusiastic today, woke up feeling a bit tired still. Must get moving to get myself going ....
OH MY GOD !!! That class was awesome !! I have never ever worked out so hard that the sweat was dripping off my chin and elbows ! I loved it, and sure will be doing that one on a regular basis... and I managed to do a good 90% of the class, only had to take time out a couple of times... WOOOO HOOOOO. I so needed to change gyms man! This has really motivated me again.
I was riding along on me trusty scooter, coming home from gym and rode past 2 bakeries, the smells were delicious, and I was soooo tempted to stop..... but I didn't! I think I am finally on track again....
Picture this: I'm sitting outside Griffin's class at 2.4.5 waiting for the kids to get out, I get a text from Steve "Want me to pick up the kids?", an evil smile comes over my face.... "OK , TA" I text back..... and he rocks up a few minutes later, sees me and ..... I just smile, and say... cool, I'm off, they are all yours! He took them to the dairy for an ice cream ... awww how nice.
Then I ask him to go and get a lettuce for dinner, and he comes home with..... a cabbage! DOH.
Mike gets home, he took a bus cos Stew's outta town, he's lost his wallet on the bus (he thinks).... and yep, it is on the bus and he can pick it up at 6pm. Hmmmmm
As guessed, it wasn't Mike who thought to ring the Bus Company, it was actually Steve... I was out getting a LETTUCE. lol
I just got back from the gym again, did the Bodyattack class for the first time, gawd, another hard one, but I managed to stay till the end and keep up with most of it. Quite a few people left way before it ended, so I felt really good about that. Stew is due home shortly, he's been out and about today and had a late meeting in Dannevirke, so now I have to get the two littlies ready for bed....
Lynda: I used to live in Auckland, oh and... Tokoroa, Upper Atiamuri, Rotorua, Wanganui, Whitianga, Te Awamutu, Hamilton, and right now I live in Palmerston North! lol
Stew just got home, so I'm off to spend some time with him, catch up on his day etc. nite nite.

I just started spin classes 3 weeks ago and they are fantatsic. Little coordination required just keep pushing those pedals!! Just when you think you can't go anymore though dig deep and keep going. A great workout and I am sure has contibuted to me losing some more weight.
ReplyDeleteI am sure you'll have no problems, but I have a phobia of falling off during such a rigorous cycling session, al la Bridget Jones.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with it. Sounds like a great workout.
ReplyDeleteOh it does sound good... and if it will keep you on track..go for it..
ReplyDeleteHey hun... you sounds so so so motivated... Your gym sounds like it is fantastic... good on you for doing the spin class today.
ReplyDeleteLove CM
Well done Chris! What a work out:)Sounds like just what you needed was a change.
ReplyDeleteA spin class??? Wow, I hear they are REALLY hard going.
ReplyDeleteLoved the photo of your $700 groceries, it never looks enough yet the bill is always heaps more than you guessed....grrrr!
andf I bet you had to ring the bus company for him, if he is anything like my son....
ReplyDeleteGosh, you make me laugh.. A cabbage instead of a lettuce, Steve is hilarious! Well done on the spin class Chris.
ReplyDeleteOMG...$700 grocery bill.... I will NEVER complain again.. (until mine gets that high.. and I am sure it will as the kids grow!!
ReplyDeleteWell done with the spinning class! Thanks for your comment too. You have lived all over Auckland!! I didn't realise you lived here. I'm in Onehunga (but from Lower Hutt, of course).
ReplyDeleteI love reading your posts. you always make me chuckle and make them feel like your actually there when writing its great :)
ReplyDeletewow, you've lived in a ton of places. In NZ I'v done Te Awamutu, Ngutunui, Pirongia, Hamilton x 3, Stratford, Te Atatu Pennisula, Ihumateo, Papatoetoe, Titirangi and now Bombay. If people ask me where I'm from I still say the Waikato as thats where I grew up.
ReplyDeleteI had to smile at the thought of your grocery shopping. When I was in Oz a couple of years ago (visiting my younger sister) I went with her to the supermarket. Her and her husband have three teenage boy's and I soon discovered that I had been taken along as a trolley pusher. She also filled two trollies and from memory it cost around $350, which was a weeks worth of food for them. I was thanking my lucky stars that I didn't have teenage boys to feed. They really do plough their way through a serious amount of food.
Sounds like you had a great workout. Great work!
