Gym Jam

Today Today Today....Husband pumped up the balance ball deal like I have at the gym. Has been in my closet for 5+ years. The thing about the ball is, well, it is a ball which means it rolls and moves like a bowl of jello. I take said ball and put it behind my back and lean against a wall. Then I move ever so slowly down the wall and then back up again. THIS IS ALOT HARDER THAN IT SOUNDS!

Next on the at home agenda is free weights. 5lbs in each hand, pull them up to chest height, then out to the side, then back to the chest. 15 reps, rest 15 more reps. Rambo told me last week there is not any difference between regular weights and the kettle bell weight. SHAPE magazine touts the kettle bell weight like it is the end all be all of exercise equipment. If Rambo says there is no difference, then that is good enough for me.

Lunges, with no hands!!!!! Guys this is so significant for me. I have such balance issues to deal with. Seeing as how I want Santa Clause to bring me a Regions Bank green bike or an orange bike, I have to get this balance issue nipped in the bud.

Finished the evening with step ups on one of those aerobic stepper deals. Another thing I have had for 5+ years. It was hid under the sofa.

Tomorrow, after work, going to the little gym in my building. I have a hot date with the mountain climbing program on the treadmill. I noticed at the big gym they had hula hoops. I wonder if Rambo can teach me to hula hhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

Laters!
