Weight:
233 lbs.
The first time I went to the gym was on Saturday the 7th of April. We worked my legs and core. My legs were sore the next day. I spent about 30 minutes doing cardio also.
On April 9th, I went to the gym and I worked on my cardio for about 30 minutes.
On April 11th, I went to the gym and worked on my arms. The exercises I did was shoulder press, Arnold press, and dips. I did three sets of each. I did ten reps with the with ten pound free weights for the Arnold press. Twenty reps of dips. Twenty reps with five pounds on shoulder press. I also did the fun ropes for three sets a minute each.
This is hard work! On the third set of shoulder presses, my body was starting to fatigue around rep 13. I wanted to give up but I couldn't. I pushed through the pain so I can get my drink of water. After the set I had this overwhelming rush of emotion. I almost broke down crying because I finished the set with a sense of accomplishment. After the workout I did 25 minutes of cardio.
It's funny, when I go to the gym I get nervous but when I'm there, I'm fine. When my trainer comes gets me for my work out, I feel a little nervous but I am fine after awhile. He kicks my butt! In the end it's all worth it. I get a high when I'm done working out and it's the best feeling.
