Biometrics assessed January 9, 2014

My job opened a new, ginormous gym with fitness classes, personal trainers, three salt water filtered pools (lap pool, therapy pool, and spa pool/hot tub), etc... My membership is $50 a month BUT I get $20 back per month on my pay check (quarterly) if I attend the gym 8+ times a month. I've gone 5 times in January. If I didn't live 60 miles away, I probably would have already attended over 8 times because I would have gone on weekend days.

As part of my membership, I meet with a personal trainer twice every 6-8 weeks, and with a nurse every 10-12 weeks for a biometric screening. 

I had my nurse assessment January 9th, and here were my stats:

I'll post an update in 10-12 weeks!

I usually do cardio as a warm up — seated elliptical or stationary bike — then do resistance/strength training. Check my Fitocracy feed for workout details, and friend me!

I don't track calories. Calories are dangerous with my slightly obsessive/addictive personality. I try to eat healthy and in moderation. I generally don't drink soda or eat fast food, but sweets are my downfall!

My goals are to get stronger, be healthier, and have more energy. I also want to look awesome at my sister's wedding at the end of May.

I hope you have a healthy and happy 2014!
