Woman of steel...

I just had a session with my trainer. Those people have no mercy. I mean, she's a wonderful friend and I love her dearly, but I think she has reduced me to rubble and debris.

I hadn't had a session with her since October. I was way overdue for a different programme, she said. All the weights are heavier now. She asked me about my stretches. I tried not to look guilty but she saw at once I hadn't been doing adequate stretches. Now I have double stretches to do. "More options" she called it. Right. And she wants me to do a full minute of the Bridge and a full minute of the Plank. Each time.

Masochism in the name of health and beauty.

Groan.

I will think of Bruce Wayne. I will think of Aragorn son of Arathorn. I will think of Starbuck. Would they stint on their training? Never.

Beauty is nice.

It certainly is. I suppose I appreciate it in other people rather than in myself, but I do think I owe it to the world to look my best.

Health is priceless.

So very, very true. I have lived without health for way too much of my life and it's precious to me.

I agree with the Groan ;<}

Nobody ever said it would be easy.
