PUSH.THE.PEDALS!
I had a great moment this week. Went to work out - the gym was packed - lots of sweat in the air. The level of intimidation for me to go work out at a gym is pretty high. The shaking that happens when I plank could start a small earthquake. Trying to stretch - touch my fingers to my.....ankles - while someone is stretching next to me whilst doing the splits. Ugh. Reconfiguring weights from someone's 150 pounds to my 15 pounds. INTIMIDATING. But, dang it, I'm doing this. First, evidently one starts with CARDIO. This is athlete talk for making your heart beat harder, faster for an extended period of time. Sounds easy enough. I've been doing the treadmill for, oh, six weeks now so I've got this cardio thing down. Speed - incline - the whole thing. Time to add....the bike... I used one of those bikes a couple of days ago (when there were 3 people in the gym) and was successful, so I thought, I've got this - I'll do this even with a packed house.
