Hey guys hope you all keeping well πŸ€—πŸ˜Š.Today as it says in the title of this post was gym day I made sure I had my breakfast πŸ˜‰, and I I took some water with me and it's a good job i did. I did the bike as I always do but this time I had keep stopping because my legs where hurting so much! And I stopped and had water bout 3 times I managed to push through the pain and did 20 minutes 😎πŸ’ͺ🏻 on bike and treadmill I found the treadmill alot easier then the bike today normally it's the other way around. Was a great work out though best thing I did was joining the gym great for keeping fit physically and mentally and building up my exercise capacity and today despite how much my legs where hurting my average heart rate was 150 which is amazing for me! Best so far!.

Have a great rest of the day 😎!

Hello :-)

I looked as I wondered if you had been to the gym I remember it is a Wednesday :-)

You made me smile I had breakfast I worried so much that week when you went without had you lived next door I would have given you some well insisted :-)

Well done pushing through that pain and keeping going and now you know to always have water with you as it served it's purpose

I mean it when I say I feel really proud of you the way you are sticking with this and today you have done the best and got the best results so far and I expect there are going to be even better one's in the future so keep doing what you are doing :-) x

Aw thank you so much ❀️. I am supposed to be going every two days but been so busy lol and Wednesday is my favourite day because my dad comes with me and my brother 😊😁. Never realised how important breakfast was because I always felt so ill in the morning to even want it πŸ™ƒ. X

Hello :-)

It is better if someone is with you

My Son has started going to the gym he goes with his friend but the shifts they work sometimes they have to go on their own but I know he enjoys it more when they both go together :-)

I never liked breakfast if I am honest just could not stomach it but now with all the heart tablets I take I have to have a few spoonfuls in a Morning just to line my stomach for the tablets but they say it is the most important meal of the day :-) x

Yeah way better going with someone especially family we help each other out 😁πŸ’ͺ🏻😎. Aw I can't imagine how that must feel having to take all them tablets, and I agree that breakfast really is the most important meal of the day more then I realised. X ❀️

Specially when you are going to the gym :-) x

Well done. I was at gym today as well. You have to take water because when your blood pressure is being controlled by medication. You need to assist the blood by giving it water to help it rise up in pressure while your body is under physical stress. My legs hurt do you feel it as muscular especially the thighs? I was told that I need to drink 1.5 litres a day of water. So when you exercise you then need more to compensate. But it is worth doing exercise to help build the heart muscle up.

Wow twins then, great minds think alike, water is more important then I realised, nah the pain was in my calfs still hurting on and off now. Yeah I agree it's worth the exercise to build up heart muscle and exercise copacity πŸ˜ŽπŸ˜‰πŸ˜.

in reply to Yumz199725

Yep twins. Any way look up how important the calf muscles are to help blood flow. Interesting. Something I will work on more.

Well done indeed Yumz, I still find nearly 2 years into my gym routine that 2 days are never the same and some days I feel on top of the world and some I think that was hard but I still go back and enjoy it.
