It’s Fun To Stay At The YMCA

Went to the Y for the first time in about 2 weeks on Saturday. I had slacked off because I was trying to recover from a pretty nasty headcold, and Saturday was the first day that I almost 100% again.

I started off planning on doing a 15 minute run on the treadmill, but my lungs had other ideas. After about 7 minutes I started hacking up all kinds of cruft from my lungs, so running will have to wait for my lungs to decide they are over this sickness too.

I did my normal weight training as well, but was able to add some more reps, which felt good. I also did some inverted sit-ups (not sure if that’s the right name, but you lay back at about a 45 degree angle hook your legs into the table contraption and do sit-ups.) Ouch. I was only was able to manage about 10 of those.

In the afternoon I went to the driving range with Gail, Bryon and Meg and hit a few golf balls around. While not exactly a lot of exercise, it did work some more muscles, and I learned how to actually hit the golf ball so it flies instead of rolling off the tee and down the hill. So I got that going for me.
