Tried something new

As i am off work until January I thought i would take the opportunity to try out one of the classes at the gym. Everyone says how good cycling is for cross training so the group cycle class seemed a good plan.... how wrong could i have been! I was SO exhausted and now I am finding it difficult sitting down comfortably.

At least I can say I gave it a go, back to my normal gym routine and swim for me :)

I was the same when I started swimming about a month ago to cross train with running. I was tired after the first go, but I slept soundly. Less so tired now,

He he. If Pilates is available you can strength your core in a less exhausting way. Great for running 🏃‍♂️ 🏃‍♀️
