No Cardio Today

For some reason, I just wasn't in the mood for it. So I just did as many of the Cybex machines as I could, which was most of them, including 3 I'd never used before--at least not in the current form. It's a good tired.

Took the Weekend Off

But I've made sure both Monday and Tuesday to stop at the gym on the way home. I'm also working my way around the Cybex machines. Some of them are much-newer versions of the machines we had at the Y; some are newer versions of the machines at 24-Hour Fitness. And some are completely alien to me, but work the same muscle groups as a couple of the machines at the Y. Weird. And, of course, I have to completely re-learn how to set each one up. I've also finally remembered which option I like for the elliptical. Still poking along with just 10 minutes plus the 3-minute cool down--such a long way from the hour I used to do pretty easily! Baby steps. It'll all come back.

Boy, Do I Feel Dumb!

Gee, it's amazing how well a Fitbit Zip will work when you take the little protective sticker off the new battery.

Thanks, Fitbit, for the Help-page reminder to take the battery out, wait a few seconds, make sure it's + side up, and put it back together.

Make it a Triple!

I am still not in the habit of moving over a couple of lanes once I'm past the 710 on my way home, so I missed the exit today. I didn't want to backtrack, especially on a Friday afternoon, so I went to the Buena Park club for my workout. Still a piddling 10 minutes + 3 minute cool down on the elliptical, but I used 4 of the Cybex machines today.

Two Consecutive Days!

Another 13 minutes (10 + 3 min cool down) on the elliptical, then 3 of the Cybex machines.

Made It!

Made it to the gym today on the way home from work. A whopping 0.65 mile on the elliptical (13 minutes including the cool-down period). Plus I hit a couple of the upper body machines that I recognized and could figure out how to work them. I really do need to meet up with a trainer to go over the various machines and learn how to set them.
