Day Five : New Years Resolutions


Date : Sunday 5th Janurary 2014

Time : 18.39


Location : Millennium Apartments Gym, Birmingham



I've never really been into the whole 'new years resolution' thing. I've always just seen it as a massive waste of time, and something noone actually commits to!

This year is different. I've gone and challenged myself to keep up not one, but two new years resolutions!

The first, to be more committed, and the second, to learn new things.

Today, after what can really only be described as a 'lazy day', I mustered up the courage to don the workout gear and venture down the 9 stories to the basement gym in my city centre apartment complex.

I've tried to commit to serious workouts in the past, magnificently failing after a couple of visits. To ensure I stick at it, I won't hit it too hard, 3 times a week to start with, alternating between cardio and weight training.

Tonight, I stuck to a warm-up on the rowing machine, 30 minutes on the treadmill and 25 minutes on the exercise bike (from which I was rudely interrupted by a chap who didn't know how to open the apartments' garage!).

I always feel good after a workout! Not sure if my muscles will agree with me tomorrow morning though! We'll see!

Lesson of the day - push yourself and you will soon see the benefits. - At least, I hope so, does anyone actually enjoy going to the gym?!

Dinner - Chicken Salad, of course! Health kick.
