At the gym I don’t really do much – I run out of breath very quickly. I am trying to get running but have had the wrong shoes I think – I ended up with blisters a lot for a while.

I managed to get to just under 10 minutes running before exhausted which is not good… However the 2 months before the best I got was 30 seconds if that.

I have a plan that I got from a website to help training yourself but so far i’ve not managed the times its suggested – I’m off by about 20% on each one so far.

I’ve been going to the gym now for about 6 weeks after work and generally do the following:

A) 5 minutes on Rowing machine

B) 40 reps on a machine for arms pushing up with a low but heavy for me weight in batches of 10 with a break of a minute ish between.

C) Another 40 on a machine pushing round and forward (chest press I think it was) as 1st

D) Stretches for about 5 to 10 minutes

E) 5 minutes on treadmill (growing to now 10 Mins)

Followed by around 20 minutes swimming in the pool. I started on 5 mins in pool but now up to 20 mins after the 6 weeks and slowly working my way to an hour but trying to increase by about 5 mins every 5th time I go.

I’ve been going around 3 times a week so slowly it is growing. Afterward I laze in the spa/sauna/steam room to chill for a bit.
