Exercise Routine

I feel a lot about my gym choice since I ran into my former student there.  He really likes it.  Worries me that it isn't busier though.  Maybe I'll see how it is in the morning before school.  Don't want the place to go out of business!

I keep my "free" LA Fitness bag in the car with exercise wear, swimsuit and towels.  When I come home from working out, I dump all the used stuff in the hamper, refill it and put it back in the car — NO EXCUSES.

I'm doing my daily knee exercises there and am up to 15 minutes on the stationary bike.  I've tried each model and think I have figured out my favorite, etc.

Also soaking the knee in the hot tub after ( and the rest of my body) since our hot tub is currently TOO HOT!  How many weeks of heat advisory now?

Still need to sell my exercise equipment.  Figure I'll post it weekly, each time reducing the price until someone comes and gets it.

    I am so with you. I need a knee replacement as well; I simply can’t afford it. It’s so hard to gear yourself up to exercise when you’re already in pain, and you know it’s going to hurt worse!
    I’m trying to exercise but the pain is really prohibitive. Kudos to you for sticking with it. I hope it works well for you.
