I went to the gym, episode IV: Return of the Lady Gym

The gym was surprisingly full today, and someone else was using the elliptical. So I got on with the weight machines.

Strange behaviour )

About five squats in I realised I was going to be able to do a widowmaker.

WOOOOOHOOO! Go you!!

I am realllly missing the gym while I'm in Glasgow, and worried that by the time I get back I'll have levelled down and have to work my way back up.

There's a widowmaker challenge starting soon in the Uplifting Girls group and I'm determined to be on the board somewhere. Even if it's right at the bottom.

Can you find a gym that does day passes? Mine charges £5 a time.

I can -- the uni's gym is allegedly £4 a time -- but there are extra complications around not being a student of this uni that have put me off so far. I should re-investigate now that it's Easter break, though.

Funny how Fitocracy's shaping things for me at the moment -- knowing there's an intermediary widowmaker challenge makes me want to focus on doing widowmakers at half bodyweight just to get the achievement! Even though I'd kindasorta decided I'd try to stay within the 12-15 rep range and add more weight. Now it's like, bah, ALWAYS WIDOWMAKERS FIRST, then more weight!
