Week Underway

Up and about n time this morning and off to the gym for the standard cardio workout session. I am starting to get a bit bored so I think that I will spend some time this afternoon working on a new routine for myself, I am getting a bit tired of waiting for the trainer to send me a new routine. The workouts I am doing now all have a sense of sameness about them and it is hard to get motivated, so at the weekends you may have noticed I have been trying some new things.

Yesterday for instance, I went with my partner and her cousin to the gym near our home and we all did a body pump class. This is like aerobics, but with weights. Basically you do lots of reptetions with relatively light weights, and you have control over the amount of weight that you use for resistance. I used to do these classes in the past, and the used to work well for me. I found that the class was as good as I remember, and I think that I will be working this into the new routine that I design for myself this afternoon. The basic plan will be cardio in the morning and a pump class or some sort of resistance training in the afternoon. I think that this is the next step forward for me now to take things to the next level.

I'll let you all know what it is that I decide on. As for the photos of my day spent walking in Balmain, we all got so excited over the shops and what we were doing that we forgot to take any snaps at all! Shocking I know, but the experience was great and we will be sure to repeat it before too long. We found some great products and really enjoye dthe day out and about. We saw a nice house for sale and took a wee tour of it and thought that it would suit us well. Unfortunately the $1.7 million price tag was a little out of our league! Still, it was a great day and I even managed to get a bit of colour as the sun was out in force - 37 degrees by lunchtime.
