Put the seat down

Hello all you left or right behinds

Last night Wendy and I went to workout for the first time in about a month. At least it was the first time for me in a long time. The machines in the workout room are somewhat automated. You put in a personalized code and it tells you your settings for the seat and how much weight. However, you have to manually adjust to your settings.

I was having a lot trouble adjusting the seat for some reason. You have to raise it slightly for it to adjust. It would not move or I would drop down too far. It was tough for me to get it in the right position.

I must have eaten a power bar or something before I had my appointment to determine my settings. Although it is easier to lift one than twelve. Last night I had trouble lifting my presets on most of the machines. I guess the purpose is to gain strength.

The machines that are hard for me are the ones that involve the arms. I feel weak when I am on them. I do not like the one where you face out and stretch your arms out. I cannot do much weight on them at all. It would probably help if I worked out more.

I guess the saying is true...there are strength in numbers.
