Yesterday the parking gods were on my side. At this time of year the gym is packed (unsurprising) and there seemed to be zero spots in the lot. I circled a few times and was ready to give up and head home when someone pulled out right in front of me, so I snagged the spot.

My butt hurts tonight because of a free session with a trainer at my gym yesterday. I'm not sure which of the things I did made my butt hurt, but yow.

Good for you as well!
I had one session with Brian using some gym credits I earned (our little accountability agreement came out of that). He *really* kicked my ass. That is one thing I can say about working with a trainer, he pushed my way harder than I push myself. Which is a good thing, but man I hurt the next day or two LOL.

Your dedication is so awesome! :) Really. and the fact that you can use a trainer is great, I know lots of people who get great results that way. Me, I a more of a "lone wolf" excersizer (it's true! an internet quiz told me! ;) and could not do the trainer thing. He would be like "consequence! 1000 meter row!" and I would punch him in the face. :)

Sometimes you just need a break. It is a delicate balance though, since you don't want to get out of the working out rhythm - but it sounds like you are doing fine! :)

Aw thanks :) I'm not really working "with" a trainer. He's not there when I work out, he just helped me set up a plan. I was worried I'd fall off the wagon when I no longer had the structure of the class I was in. So he decided to build in some accountability for me, heh.

And did make it to the gym today, so I'm back on track. :)
