the new workout

Tonight I met with my new personal trainer, John. I specifically asked for a no-machine workout. I'd like to move beyond circuits of machines and start working on my goals front and center.

Goals for the first three months: Emphasis on core strength, and achieving strength and size in my arms and chest.

I'll meet with John every two weeks; and each time he'll give me a new set of exercises to do. I'll workout four nights a week and compliment it all with a spin class on Sunday afternoons.

workout specifics for folks that like that sorta thing )

I have a lot of confidence in John - he really impressed me. and he is firm without being a bully; which helps. I really enjoyed my workout with him - now to "make it work" until I see him again on the 5th.
