Along with going to the gym, I decided to purchase some new shoes to work out with. Jordon went and bought some Starter shoes to use while at the gym and has loved his. They are lightweight and while they don’t take a lot of abuse while at Fitness on 25th, he does find them comfortable. I took his advice to heart and decided to purchase some of my own for only $25. Considering what they cost, they are a great to wear and are perfect for the gym.
In January, Jordon and two of his colleagues at The Lighthouse started to work out at Fitness on 25th. It is the gym run by the YWCA in Saskatoon. Jordon’s shoulder is still bothering him but the cross trainer (or elliptical trainer) keeps his shoulder loose while giving him a good workout. He also is known to put up 100 shots in the gymnasium to keep in shape.
He went out and bought some lightweight Starter shoes from Wal-Mart and away he went. I started to think about this and realized that I am 43 years old and I needed to start to work out aggressively and often so I joined as well.
Fitness on 25th is a great gym. Nice locker rooms and fantastic personal trainers. I spend most of my time on the cardio equipment upstairs It’s close enough to walk down to but far enough that it is a big of a workout as well. Once spring comes, I’ll walk it all of the time.
The downside of the gym for me is not being able to go at a regular time. While I would love to go with Jordon, Chris, and Jeff, that’s not going to happen with my work schedule. The goal is five times a week and I am coming close to doing that.
