Oh my aching…..

ASS!!!

Yes, ass.  I’ve owned a bike all my life. Didn’t ride it much in the last few years. Was always too embarassed to get my fat ass up on the bike and I’ll admit, I was lazy.

I asked hubby to bring the bikes up from the basement yesterday. To my surprise he actually did and he washed them all up. They look brand new. Oh wait, that’s because they are brand new. Well they are about 4 years old but we only rode them 1/2 a summer andthen put them away for the next 3 years.  So last night we decided to hop on and go for a ride. I knew my ass would be sore the first few times but OH MAN does it hurt! 🙁

Hubby wanted to go for another ride today but I said no way. I can’t sit on that seat again until MY seat chills out a bit. I will try again tomorrow. I know once I start riding regularly it won’t hurt but the first few times are killer.

Anyway it was nice to do some other exercise besides walking. Once winter gets here and it’s too cold to walk outside I will have the treadmill but I’m also thinking of joining a fitness center. I’m not sure which one. I have no clue where to start. I’ve never been to one. I know if I join it will keep me motivated throughout the winter to not sit on my ass and eat so if you have any suggestion of a good gym (I live in Canada and there are lots of fitness chains) please do suggest them to me.

Thanks

Well I went to Nubody’s and I loved it but I am thinking that is just an Atlantic Canada thing. Goodlife fitness seems to be popular in Ontario. I forget where exactly you are from. Try this resource and see if it helps. http://www.healthclubdirectory.com/health_clubs/Canada/ Good luck!

I heard GoodLife was good. There is one here, and it seems pretty popular.

My butt always hurts after I get done riding too!!

Oh man, you are NOT kidding. The combined pain of plopping my hugs rump on that tiny, hard seat and peddling my fat butt through town has not made bike riding look tempting. If you can keep it up I applaud you!! 🙂

Congrats on getting on the bike! Here is a page that might be useful: http://www.plagueangel.net/grotto/id3.html I’m not sure the rest of the site will be because it’s not healthy weight loss. But, that page is very useful. Good luck!
