Thursday 14th January 2010

A good day today! Very inspired by a whole bunch of uber-fit men at L A Fitness today - including the assistant manager who seems to have bulked up over Christmas while I was .... otherwise absent. He always was very slim but just has got some amazing definition. It's proof that it CAN be done! So;

35 minutes on the treadmill.

5 x 30 minutes Slendertone abs sessions.

1 x 30 minute Tripollar session.

Wednesday 13th January 2010

Trying to increase the Slendertone sessions again from the weekend today;

5 x 30 minute Slendertone abs sessions.

Tuesday 12th January 2010

Today tried to ease back in gently;

2 x 30 minute Slendertone abs sessions.

Working back upto it! I do realise it's time for an abs photo to show progress but I'm nervous that I'll look worse or no difference. Try and take it tonight or tomorrow!

Monday 11th January 2010

Well I am ashamed to admit I had both Saturday and Sunday off from my exercise routine as I had a migraine and was sick quite a few times! :( Bad times. However I caught up today with my FIRST visit back to L A Fitness.

30 minutes treadmill.

15 minutes rower.

2 x 30 minute Slendertone abs session.

Good to be back!

Friday 8th January 2010

Took it a bit easier today;

4 x Slendertone abs sessions.

1 x Tripollar abs sessions.

Thursday 7th January 2010

So today a slightly easier day due to the soreness of yesterday and upset sleep;

2 x 30 minute Slendertone abs session.

1 x 30 minute Tripollar abs session.

Wednesday 6th January 2010

It's all going good - I'm starting to enjoy doing the routines!

6 x 30 minute Slendertone abs session.

1 x 30 minute Tripollar abs session.

The only slight problem has been some intercostal muscle soreness on my left side. I think it's due to cranking up to 3 hours the last few days so going to try taking it slightly easier tomorrow.

Tuesday 5th January 2010

Another good day for me - a painful day for the abs;

6 x 30 minute Slendertone abs sessions
