Did 25 mins on the treadmill today which was sweaty but I managed and it felt pretty good, followed by the regular 20 mins on the bike. No pool today.

Another difficulty today, couldn't stop sweating while on the treadmill so I cut it at 10 minutes and then went on the bike for my usual 20. Then I came back to the treadmill and worked it for 15 minutes, by the time I came back a fan had been switched on and the breeze made it much more comfortable.

Increased treadmill time to 25 mins. Had back spasms 15 mins into the set but used handlebars and the pain went away so I was able to do more time.

Had a bit of a tough time yesterday doing treadmill and bike, was sweating more than usual and didn't feel so great. Spoke to Hugh and he advised backing off a bit, but I'm not sure I want to do that. Will see how it goes tomorrow when I try again, I'd like to increase instead of decrease work out time.

Went for regular work out today, 20 mins treadmill and 20 mins bike, followed by about 40 minutes in the pool. Getting to know other people there which is nice and makes the time go by faster. I'm getting ready to increase the treadmill time, will consult Hugh for the next challenge.

Today was my first day back at the gym since my summer membership lapsed around Labor Day. Did 20 mins on the treadmill and another 20 on the rec. bike, then a dip in the pool. It feels good to have something to do and I am looking forward to a new routine of 3x a week. Thanks to Hugh for giving me a starting program that I can stick to.
