I hit the gym today at work and from now on, I'm gonna gym for an hour daily. My EQ ( exercise quotient if there is one like that ) is just slightly above my IQ, the latter being just a little above the below-average category! and this means, I have to exercise! Having been the outdoorsy kinds,I know fully well what burning fat means but oflate, laziness has overtaken my priorities. Though I have been getting hints often these days from my body, I haven't done much about them! Rather I have been giving excuses. Some of the hints I have been getting
1. My fave jeans is struggling on its way up :)-
2. My erstwhile glorius skin shows aftermarks from pimple ruptures
3. The stairs to my cafeteria appear as though am climbing the Empire State Building
4. Am cursing,swearing and middle-fingering all those who make driving tough for me on the road.(In short am stressed!)
5. My back hurts when I sweep and mop my house!!
6. Those ugly devils are coming back,sleepless nights,more frequently than before!
7. Those uglier devils are threatening to come back,yes the migraines!
The last hint was enough for me to realize that it is time I get back to putting my system through some sweating-out! Thanks Sundari for helping me choose the right track suit from Adidas today,I bought you a Kalmane Koffee in return :)- Well, I did tread-mill for a full 30 minutes non-stop! What a superb feeling at the end of it!
As per medical guidelines, one must sweat with brisk walk/run/jog and that indicates a good heart! Am glad I have a good one,I always knew it beats well and specially well when a handsome,smart man walks by (*wink*) but I had my doubts if it really beat that well, you know what I mean ? yeah,the 72 per minute thingy! Today, I knew it does! Thank God for it...
Apart from beating hearts,a brisk jog/run/walk helps me focus on the priorities in life correctly. Dunno what, but the whole rhythm harmonises the self into thinking about life and philosophy etc, for me it does! Especially on a tread-mill in Oracle's wee gym,with loud music from that stupid music player next to the weighing machine coupled with fellow-gymmers and their machines,I look to focus somewhere away and concentrate.Whoever put the mirror in front of the tread-mill deserves a Nobel Prize for common-sense (committee should set this category up!),the mirror serves as a reference for all things possible during the gym hour! The mirror channelises my thoughts,it helps me see how much I sweat thereby encouraging me to do more(no I dont like sweat,it stinks but remember the more you sweat,the better your heart beats ? and when my wonderful face goes clean and pink(with all the toxins removed), I feel beautiful! For a woman,feeling beautiful is as important as her existence( am joking here!) It makes me feel healthy at the end of it all! Most importantly,it removes the guilt of having gorged on a chocolate cake or a vada during snacks time, which means I can have a bigger piece or a double vada ?? yum yum!!
Yesterday,I watched 'Bunty Aur Babli' and noticed in the 'Kajara Re' song that Ash's tummy was flat! 'Always Aim High' is my fave quote :)-

Ah!!! that reminds me!!! its beena coupla mionths since i went to the gym!!!! the money is going off my bank account though :(:(
I shd restart the routine!!!!!
as for aiming high, u meant aiming for a flat tummy right?? and not high height-wise????? :D:D:D:D
And Oh yes, the black background to your blog is very hard on eth eyes!!! its takes me a good minute to read anything else after reading your blog!!!!!
A flat tummy is easier to achieve than a 5'8 height isnt it ? so you know what the 'Aim High' means ?? :):)-
Chotu, sorry for the disturbance on ur eyes, I have changed the background now!
Gymnasium...hmm.. i have heard of this place. Isn't that where people try and get better of their age ;-)). My strategy is "why sweat now, when you can regret later". Witty post. Happy gymming
Nice post. But see, I buy u a coffee wo any rhyme or reason, just kidding. I was abt to ask u abt ur experience in the gym and I see ur blog in the morning. Good to know u enjoyed.
