Personal Training NYC -Client H

I’m not much of a holiday fan, so I must say I’m glad Thanksgiving is over. We went out of town for a few days, which made it difficult to follow the program.

My slip-ups were not as much of what I ate but when I ate.  I didn’t eat any breakfast. I was pretty good about eating lunch and dinner.  I didn’t get much exercise in, unless we can count the new Nintendo WII.  I gotta tell you, playing tennis on that thing can be a great cardio workout.  You don’t push buttons like most gaming devices.  With the WII, you swing the remote just like it was a tennis racket. If you’re standing up when you play, you’ll find yourself jumping all over the place.

I did walk with my dad… and he walks FAST.  We walked 30 minutes at what must have been 4+ mph.  Honest! I’m not exagerating.  The man has been walking and/or using his treadmill everyday for the last 30 years.  He’s in great (cardio) shape.  He really wants to start working out with weights now.  I’ve bought him a couple of books and some dumbells, but I’d really like him to join a gym to get personal instructions.   He is 74 years old and never done weights before.

Back to me.. I worked out Monday and Tues this week (before leaving town). I was thinking about working out today.. but it’s beginning to look like I’m going to put it off.  My husband told be to be ready to go biking this afternoon.  It should be a beautiful day.

I had a couple of people comment on my arms while I was Thanksgiving-ing.  They both (at separate times) mentioned the multiple definitions in my arms.  :)

I wasn’t able to get any pictures of myself.  I’m too embarassed to ask anyone to take them.  Unfortunately, when you ask people that are out of shape to take a “before” picture of you when you are already doing pretty good, they seem to get all huffy and act like they are going to start heeving or something. So I just left it alone.

Well, it’s now 9am and I’m at home.  There is no excuse to miss breakfast, so I’ll sign off here and head to the kitchen.
