Exercise

Last week I started working out with a personal trainer at my new gym. I have been eating well and exercising several times per week, but I haven't been able to lose any more weight for the past 2 months. So I figured I needed some help to rev up my metabolism and help me get back into my cute clothes!

I really like the trainer I chose. Her name is Emily. She grew up in northern Wisconsin and is very nice and down to earth. She likes to do circuit training that gets my heart rate up while also incorporating strength training. After our work out last week, I was so sore my abs literally hurt when I touched them the next day! I had my second session with her today. Either I am getting stronger or today was a little easier because I don't feel like such a wreck today. We will see how I feel tomorrow!

Exercise has always been a part of my life. Some times more so than others, but when I exercise more frequently I do feel better.

There was an article today in the New York Times about how exercise does more for your brain than thinking does! It is a really good read.
