Fitness report - week one

Translated from the Romanian original

I mentioned here a few days ago that I’d started a fitness program with a friend. After the first week, I can finally move my arms again. :)

Seriously though, here’s what I’ve noticed:

  • I sleep much better at night and wake up feeling rested;

  • the first 3 days were really tough because my muscles were so sore—the pain felt good, but it was constant;

  • I wouldn’t have managed on my own; I’d have got bored after the first 20 minutes;

  • the people around me who said my enthusiasm wouldn’t last long really motivated me;

  • I can climb 5 flights of stairs without the slightest problem—I don’t even get out of breath.

The routine is simple. One day we go to the gym and work out according to a well-planned routine, and the next day we go to the pool and swim 40 lengths.

I got the iFitness app for the iPhone to keep track of all the exercises, but I haven’t managed to use it yet because entering all the information takes too long.

I’ll be back with another report next week. Until then, have an active weekend! :)

Mai ales azi, dupa ce mi-ai spus ca ai facut 40 de bazine de inot, m-a apucat asa, un dor nebun de inot! Poate ca, stimulat de ceea ce ai scris aici, atat de convingator si de tonic, o sa incep din nou sa fac si eu sport! Felicitari si tine-o tot asa! :)
