Today is a long day for me. don't get me wrong, it's not a bad thing that I get to spend my entire day in a gym. Last year, that was exactly my dream job. This year, heck, I got my dream job. I work at the service counter at a great gym, for awesome bosses and I have the world greatest co-worker EVER. I get to talk about fitness ALL DAY LONG. The only down side is that I get to watch people workout ALL DAY LONG. It the worst kind of tease for a gym brat.
Along with that I also get to train some of the members at the gym with the Basic training program. YEESSS, I am officially training clients at a gym and also give my boot camp classes to a great group of participants.
Dream #1 of lists of achievements: Achievement unlocked!
(yes, I'm a bit of a geek)
So I really don't mind that i got up at 4:45 AM to go to work on my bike with my giant lunch bag.
I'm at the service counter form 6 AM to 2 PM and training from 4 PM till 9 PM. In the small free time between my two shift, I will take advantage and do a cardio workout.
My workout will look somewhat like this:
10 minute warm up on stair master.
Circuit training for 20 minutes
1 minute work station with 30 seconds rest in between
Just a few example of the stations in my circuit:
