1 week into The Biggest Loser!

Ok, it's been 1 week since The Biggest Loser started at Hampton Hill and from what I have heard it has been phenominal so far!

In fact, inspired myself, I started REALLY lifting weights and am still battling through the soreness! And the sad thing is...I have owned Hampton Hill for almost 12 years now and KNOW the importance of "resistance training!" What have I been doing over the last few years!!!

Well, I am with all of you out there trying to get "in shape!" The time is NOW! At least it is for me!

Feeling inspired by The Biggest Loser

Although I have exercised for over 25 years I tend to get into a "running rut." I will do BodyPump or BodyStep here and there but not much else. I KNOW the importance of resistance training AND cross training but just haven't been doing it.

Feeling inspired by our newest group of Biggest Loser's I decided to hit the floor at the club yesterday and lift weights. I'm a bit rusty but have done it for years, right? Well, after people that know me got over the initial shock of seeing me actually lifting weights I found myself wandering around not sure where every thing was. Ok, we moved to this facility in 2003 and I don't know where everything is?! I realized it had been way too long since I was serious about lifting weights and this morning I will tell you this...my BODY realizes how long it has been! Ouch!!

BUT, I am back and ready to get into a routine that includes resistance training. Soreness aside, it actually felt good getting back to that side of exercise!
