Default Working out and feeling GREAT!

Okay, granted it has only been two weeks, but I felt wonderful today at the YMCA! I had added weight training to my walking as of this week and today when I was doing the machines I could feel the stretch from the previous two days workouts. Ya know, that slight discomfort in your muscles that feels more great than painful? It was awesome and I just wanted to share!

Way to go Lakegirl! Exercise can be so empowering!

Make sure to do an active cool down (5/10 min light bike/walking) after weights to reduce the lactic acid build up.

Good job! It can definitely be habit forming, keep it up! I get anxious now days if I can't get some exercise in every day.

I agree,.. I felt so guilty yesterday when i couldnt get any of the Leslie dvd in because of my knee,.. but I think I am going to try again today. If my knee startsd hurting too much, I will stop.

Way to Go! And I totally agree with you, it doesn't take long at all to feel the positive effects from working out!

Great Job! You're doing great and it'll just keep getting easier to stick with it as it becomes a great part of your life/routine.
