Sara came to class with me today, so I had no excuse not to go to the gym afterward! My joints were really sore today (I hope I'm not getting this flu-ey thing that's going around), so that made me feel pretty tired. She thought the Grand Staircase wasn't that big of a deal, but whatever, man, it's hard for me!
I didn't think I'd be able to do much on the elliptical because of the sore joints, but after two very easy laps of the track I decided to give it a try. To my surprise, the elliptical was easier on my knees and shoulders than walking or the stairs, so I kept with it for the whole half hour while Sara did sprints and lifted weights. I only did one cooldown lap, but that's okay, because the elliptical is the main point of going to the gym. I still plain to increase my time by three to five minutes sometime within the next three workouts, though, sore joints or not!
