I couldn't get myself out of bed this morning to go to the gym - so I went after work. I hate going to the gym after work because it is always seems so packed. It's a smaller "chain" gym - and it really makes me miss the Princeton Club in Madison!!
Anyway tonight when I was at the gym - I was doing weights - they have a lot of those weight machines that I was forced to use tonight being there was a class that closed off half of the gym that has the ab station - kettle bells - box jumps - exercise balls and some free weights.
Well, I was the only girl among 7 men that were using free weights and the weight machines. These machines make it super easy to switch the amount of weight, and you can be very incognito while doing it! So when I would wipe down the machine - I would increase the weight. For example instead of 220 on the leg press I would put it at 295 ... I didn't max out every single one of them (they would know that is a lie) - but I would put considerable more weight on there than normal - just to see if they noticed!
After the "weights" part of my workout - I went to the bike to cool down. As I was cooling down on the bike my back is turned to them - but I could still see them through the window. It was funny to see one guy go to the machines and motion to his friend to "check this out" and they both looked my direction. I just sat there peddling - smiling to myself - thinking "that's right - don't act like your not impressed!"
It's those little things like that that amuse me on a daily basis!
