Fat To Fit Blog XX: Gym review

I've been going to the gym twice a week for four weeks now but was getting very annoyed with my workout as it felt so easy, the treadmill especially i barely got out of breath and the bike just seemed to hurt my butt! but Jane at the gym has come to the rescue and given me a new workout and gave me compliments for having an hourglass figure and a nice accent, bless her :)

It's a lot more challenging than my previous workout but I want to be kept on my toes. The new work out has got abs exercises, the arm bike and more toning cardio (stepper/wave machine) for hips/thighs area where I really want to target as I really want to get into my leather skirt and buy a new pair of jeans :) All I will say hats off to anyone who does the wave machine at the gym that thing is so hard! I was dripping sweat all over the machine after only doing 6 minutes of it.

It took about over an hour to get the review sorted since the gym was busy and then I wanted to try the work out in full so I was there from half 2 until nearly 5. I came home and demolished by reasonable sized bowl of chilli and rice :)

My old workout
  • 10 min cross trainer
  • 15 min treadmill (power walking)
  • 10 min bike
  • 10 min rower
  • 5 min recline bike


New work out
  • 5 min cross trainer
  • 15 min treadmill with running intervals, i have never run on a treadmill in my life O.o
  • 10 min rower
  • 8 min stepper
  • 6 min arm bike
  • 6 min wave machine
  • 24 abs crunch things that hurt like hell but seem to do the job way better than loads of situps.
  • Stretching exercises which seems to be a lot about getting my legs in the air and stretching like a cat.
  • 5 min recline bike to cool down.
