As part of my endeavor to get back into shape, I’ve joined a local gym. Planning to work mostly on improving upper body strength. Also what’s really cool is that the walking machines have television screens on them with all sorts of cable channels. It’s amazing how quickly the time passes when you can focus on something other than the exercise. Plus they’re the only gym in the area with a pool, and swimming is great exercise. Best of all, they have child care, so I can bring Caroline with me and Kath can have the mornings to work on puppetry and such.
So basically I’m figuring Monday/Wednesday/Friday will be gym days, and I practice bowling Tuesdays, Thursday and Saturday. Seems like a decent enough exercise program. Until now I’ve just been bowling for exercise, which works well enough, but the development of my body is lopsided. My right arm is pretty normal looking, but my left arm–my bowling arm–is muscled and defined. So this should help even things out. And they teach you how to use the various machines so I won’t screw myself up.
