Well I have been stair climbing and working my butt off to get fit and shift some weight before China, and while my legs are resembling something like Arnold Schwarzenegger on a skinny day, the rest of me does not seem to be keeping up with the attempt to get fit.
After much encouragement from some lovely friends and of course my family, today I had my first session with a personal trainer to help me get my fitness levels up. I am not going to lye, it was tough - I don't think I have done a push up in 10 years!
The trainer did comment about my leg strength, which pleased me, but there is no point walking up those stairs on the wall if I am huffing and puffing by the time I get to the top.
So after session 1, I am not yet in too much pain, I am feeling some tightness in my arms, but I guess the next few days will be the test on how much pain I will be in - NO PAIN NO GAIN is some clique that seems to be said.
Nobody can ever say I am not determined to make this work! It is 5 months now to China and by golly I am going to walk that wall and embrace what ever it throws at me!
