The Lady in the Mirror is about a self-discovery journey looking into the honest and sometimes brutal inner workings of a woman (aka ME), who must face The Lady in the Mirror as she tries to improve herself and those she loves. Hopefully, the Lady and I will provide inspiration while exploring life's frustrations of trying to pick up the fragmented pieces along the way.

Fat Lady Loves Exercise!
No deep thoughts today, at least not yet... Only that I had the absolute BEST cardio workout today. I did 35 straight minutes on treadmill, averaging 4.5 METS. Which for me is great! Pulled off a 12 minute mile--slow for most, almost running for me! Followed that with a ten nautilus machine short circuit of decreased weights with increased reps--including, get his--20 straight reps on that damn overhead press!!! Ended on the bike for 10 minutes with average 5.8 METS. I was icky, sticky, ringing WET from sweat and oh so feeling that endorphin high! Yep, this fat lady is loving the exercise!

Uh, I can't even walk a 12-minute mile and I've been doing this for three years! I'm impressed!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome with the o/h presses, too. I know those have been your sticking point, but you have soundly defeated them!
Kicked my butt, but I did it!
