Planet Fitness does not have a pool.  I do love swimming the most.  I tried the YWCA but that is as pricey as what you have.  When I hit 65, Medicaid has Silver Sneakers which is a program for Seniors.  Then I will be able to do my swimming at the Y.  I guess there are some perks to getting old.

what the hell is a sleep pod???

It isn't a sleep pod.  It is a meditation pod.  It looks like a flying saucer.  You lay in it and it must relax you.  I was laughing at the 12 min.  workout booth.  You just stand in it and it does everything.  Now that is my kind of workout.  ?  I haven't tried it yet.  Maybe the wind jiggles your flab.

Took advantage of a brief break in the weather and got in a 6.6 mile out-and-back run on the Graysville Mountain Section of the Cumberland Trail this morning.

Nice hike on Saturday. About 11 miles with an elevation gain of 2200 feet.

Wow, beautiful and very impressive.  

 

Well I went to Planet Fitness Today for the first time.  Kind of got the feeling I am really out of shape when most of the machines were on the lowest weight and I couldn't get them to work.  I did the whole room that worked on all the different parts of the body on timed intervals.  Bicycled for 30 min and walked for 30 min and then I enjoyed the rub down chair. 

I might be a little sore tonight but I actually feel really good mentally.

I got in a couple of trail runs over the weekend (7.8 miles on Saturday and 8.4 miles on Sunday).  So today, I just did upper body work: Overhead Press, Bench Press, High Boy Rows, Dumbbell Pullovers, Chin-Ups, Hanging Leg Raises, and Roll-Outs.  Kinda felt like a "Gym Bro" just hitting the "show muscles" this morning.

I overdid it for a bit, but didn't like the way I felt after stopping entirely for a couple of weeks.

 

Eventually I'll figure out the whole moderation thing.  Eventually...
