Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever. -Lance Armstong
Free Gym Pass
So for the past 2 days I have been trying out a new gym until the rec center at UNC starts a regular class schedule again. I had a coupon for 14 days free at the Ladies Fitness and Wellness Center in Chapel Hill so I decided to go. Am I glad I did! That place is the nicest gym I’ve ever been to. It’s women only which doesn’t really matter to me but it had super nice equipment, nice wooden lockers, a massage room, a sauna, a spin bike room (my favorite part), a nice studio for cardio classes, tons of cardio machines, and a lot of weight machines and free weights. If any women live in the Chapel Hill/Raleigh/Durham area, I highly recommend this gym!!
Today I did a spin class and followed it up with a yoga class. The spin class was probably one of the toughest classes I’ve ever taken and I’ve taken A LOT at various places. The instructor also seemed very well educated in fitness and talked a lot about aerobic and anaerobic thresholds, VO2 max, and Lance Armstrong statistics. I really enjoyed the class I had the day before as well.
I am going to try to add yoga and pilates to my workout schedule a couple days a week for extra stretching, flexibility, and strength as well as injury prevention (hopefully).
