first visit to the gym 😊😁

So today was the first visit to the gym, I was lucky enough to have an induction with a very nice instructor. I was shown how to use a sit down cross trainer which I managed to do 12 minutes on, I had a go at a leg extension machine and got to do around 15 reps with a very light weights. Moving on to upper body I worked a little on my chest and back, have to say I found the upper body stuff much easier than the legs, but it really felt so good trying to be active like that. Honestly so pleased to have taken the decision to push myself like this.

fitness...

Well, now the treatment is behind me for the next 6 months, time to focus on other things. I started very lightly with some exercise, did my first proper plank, 10 sit ups and 5 press ups. Honestly it wasn't easy at all but fighting through managed to get it all done, absolutely determined to keep myself in good order, ready for the skydive.

how I'm doing after yesterday

So, after the treatment yesterday I did get an early night, couldn't have stayed awake if I'd tried haha. Woke up around 08:30 this morning, feeling quite rough but trying to push through, when I say rough not really too sure what I mean by that... it just seems to be a bit of an odd feeling. I did nip out this morning to try and get some air in my lungs to try and help, it did help a bit, new pair of jeans and a top later lol, also grabbed a yoga mat for when I'm trying to exercise ready for the skydive.

great night out and treatment getting closer

Bit of a last min decision on Saturday. At the local Guildhall was an 80s tribute band 'Made in the 80s', Lisa and me made a choice late on that we kinda fancied a date night, booked the tickets and went along. Well it was a very good decision, what a great show😊😁, some real 80s classics done brilliantly. Not sure either of us stopped singing along all night, I'm a massive fan of 80s music so this was a real treat.
