Worst.Thing.Ever

Tuesdays I have one hour of TRX.

It already happened to me once that I go to TRX and noticed – damn, I forgot to shave my armpits!!
It’s not like I have a big bush, but I tend to let it grow a bit before I shave because my skin is way too sensitive there and I will bleed and get pimples and be all red if I shave every day.

So anyway, today was one of those days. I wanted to shave yesterday evening after my shower and forgot. Today at work I remembered.

I then went down to the store which is in the same building as my work and bought a couple of razors. I then, in the first time of history, shaved my armpits in the womens bathroom (sssht, don’t tell). I felt so much better after, there’s nothing more embarrassing than making a workout with a trainer and having armpit-hair!

Now I have about five razors at work.

One Month

On May 13th I started my gym workout!
On May 11th I had my first supervised training with a coach!
On May 8th I joined the gym!

I’ve been to following group courses:

  • Body Pump (strength)
  • Bodystyling (strength)
  • WBS (Pilates-Style, strength)
  • Zumba (cardio)
  • TRX (strength)
  • Dance (cardio)
  • Belly-Legs-Tushy (strength)
  • Step (cardio)

My favorites are: Body Pump, TRX, Belly-Legs-Tushy and Step

Machines I use in the strength circuit (8 machines a 30 seconds a 20 reps, 2 rounds) :
Each round

  • row: 14kg (started with 13kg) +1
  • ab crunch: 14kg (started with 12kg) +2
  • leg curl: 14kg (started with 10kg) +4
  • chest press: 13kg (started with 11kg) +2
  • back extension: 24kg (started with 16kg) +8
  • leg extension: 11kg (started with 7kg) +4
  • lat pull: 19kg (started with 10kg) +9
  • glutaeus: 13kg (started with 11kg) +2
  • hip abduction: 20kg

I feel good! I feel how my whole body is getting harder. My abs and especially my arms! I’m happy I joined, I’m really enjoying the gym, I never thought I would. egym

TRX today – wow, how challenging. It was my first time doing something like that, the trainer was very helpful though and showed me how it’s done.
