Let’s see if this works
Ok, so I have done a little investigating and tried to post some pics. Hopefully this has worked and all the formatting of the post works too. They are at the bottom.
Anyway at 10.00am this morning the team of Fit & Fab A team, met at the gym. We went to the treadmills first and learnt a little about them and got going. I got in my groove and sped things up and started running. It was so liberating and easy. I really struggle with the street run. Better get over that before January
We were on them for about 36mins and then moved to the rowing machines. After 2mins I would have quit if the team weren’t there to give me private self guilt. We all did 4mins and then 3 of us carried on so in the end I did 6mins. It was cool because there is a game on it called ‘fishing’ The aim to eat the little fish and not get eaten by the BIG fish. It all depends on your rowing style, if you slow up you get caught. Anyway I got 120 points.
We were all feeling like we could still try more. We went to the cycles. As we were all sitting in different spots I used my personal TV and watched Shortland Street from the week gone. Sad I know. It was a great session and I am so pumped to do it again. I will be there at opening time tomorrow 5.30am. I feel great as enjoyed the effort I put in on the treadmill, I was sweating lots.
Our personal trainer isn’t there till Tuesday so will have to wait to get our personal programmes and eating guide. Scott the other teams personal trainer was bummed our team was there, he hoped the team he is working with had the same determination lol. I guess they look good too if someone on their team wins as they planned an awesome programme for them to achieve the win.
When home the family had lunch and then we headed to the park. We let the kids cycle a bit then they went on the little train that goes round the park. Isaiah was keen to play at the playground so off we went. Although sitting here at home now I can tell I was in the sun as my face is burning.
Must get the kids to bed. Do some baking as have coffee group at my place tomorrow and I haven’t done the cleaning today yet.

It worked, the photos are there.
Sounds like the equipment is top notch. Funny that the other team’s trainer was looking on with jealousy. He’ll be having a bit of a talking to the team I bet.
Just watch with the treadmills. If you’re on them for too long you can damage your feet. They’re usually only meant to be used when the weather is crappy and you can’t get out on the road. They don’t simulate the road conditions. AS you know, cos you enjoyed running. But foot placement is different to running out side.
Just something to be aware of.
Good effort with all the different things you tried.
The Rower is really good for warming up as you’re using most of your muscle groups. Keep plugging away at it.
