Today we got some news that just put us in a pretty bad mood. We are more disappointed in the way everything happened but whatcha going to do? Our fitness center has decided to cut many classes from the schedule, two being spin classes that we attend (Sunday AM and Monday PM). This was just dropped on us this morning by our spin instructor who was totally surprised that we were not already informed. This comes after the fitness center gave us one week notice that they were closing for TWO weeks to get stuff done. Big mess! We totally understand having to make wise business decisions but they aren’t doing anything about it. I can’t see paying the current rate for them cutting the classes we attend in HALF. We are just annoyed and I’m off to check out pricing and classes at another gym nearby. We don’t have a lot of choices so it’s a bummer.
Kev and I would ultimately like to set up a home gym in our garage. Would love to start with upright and recumbent bikes (or even a spin bike), an elliptical and treadmill plus maybe the ab roller or things like that. This would be the ultimate way for us so we could work out at home AND save on the gym membership fee. But in the meantime, I’m off to go check out Anytime Fitness to see what they have to offer.
Hey, thanks for listening to my rant LOL We just want to be treated right and I want my 4 spin classes a week back waa waa. Hope ya’ll had a great weekend!

Overall, I would say it was a pretty good workout week. I’m not sure how this coming week will play out but I’ll do as much in-home workouts and outdoor walking as I can and I want to start doing 3 sets of 10 leg bicycles and 3 sets of 10 clamshell crunches with exercise ball every day. The 30 Day Shred will wait until July.
How were your workouts this past week and what do you have planned for the coming week?
