Circuit Training
We have been going to the gym for a couple of years now and decided it was time to try something different. Our gym has started a circuit training class so we decided to give it a go. We turned up for our assessment not quite knowing what torture was in store. After a class warm up which completely knackered me we were told that there were ten different exercises including sit ups press-ups, and skipping - yes skipping! You had to do each of the stations for one minute followed by a 30 second break then on to the next station. Once you did all ten you then started again, 45 seconds on each with a fifteen second rest. Then on completion another circuit 30 seconds each with no rest. Forty five minutes of sheer hell later we hobbled to the car. Although I am sure the exercise did us good it didn't agree with Hazel's leg - I dropped her at casualty on Monday morning where they diagnosed a 'soft tissue' injury.
I wanted to find the picture above on the PC to add to this post - just as I went to ask Haze where she'd filed it I noticed a file on the desktop called my fat leg.jpg - bless...
