For the past two weeks (more or less and since it cannot be more then it must be less) I have been going to a local gym to exercise for about 60 minutes, starting off with T/Th then M/E/F, and this week it has been M/T so far and we will see about the rest of the week.
Why am I going to this gym, you might find yourself asking?
Well... my Humana Health Insurance has a Silver Sneakers Program which gives me a FREE MEMBERSHIP at participating gyms. This one participates and is only a couple of miles from the house so it is really convenient.
I am building up my endurance on the bike and treadmill using each one about 20 minutes which I will be increasing to 30 minutes and maybe 40 minutes... but, I would like to top out at the gym with a 90 minute program eventually. There are also some strength machines that I have been using to strengthen my lower back, upper back, and shoulder muscles. I do not increase the weights as I don't want to build muscle just tone what I have.
It is interesting but only the older, probably retired people wear face masks and wipe off the machines after using them.
