An achievement

So, working off the Thanksgiving dinner, I went to the gym this morning early so I could meet up with Trev and Rach in the city later.

While I like pilates and getting my butt kicked by the trainer, I have never really liked the cardio portion of the workout - that's the bike, ellyptical, stairs, ski machine etc. I find it tiring and boring all at the same time.

However, the new machine I found (see http://www.technogym.com/cardiowave/default.asp?pc=0&lng=2) is different. Not only does it feel like it's working every muscle in your lower body, I don't get bored at all. It helps there's a TV to watch at the same time, although I don't do that too much. Usually I stay until I've done 10 minutes, but with this I can knock out 20 minutes no problem. And don't think I'm doing it on an easy level.....of the 1-25 levels there are, I chose level 15 today.

The best thing about it is the calorie burning part. Today I did 22 minutes and burnt 350 calories.

Now, there's a reason to do it. That means I can eat a Twix completely guilt free today! Yeeeeha

Dude....one day I'll have a gym-body.....if it kills me:)
