new found gym fiend

I've been going to the gym religoulsly for the past few weeks and um well lets just in the dictionary next to the word unfir you'd most likely find a pic of me...lol hey but am a work in prgress right.

Anyways I completely and utterly hate the treadmill normally but yesterday I developed a new found appreciation for the damn thing. So its winter in the Southern Hemisphere so the gym is crazy empty...ha so thats a gud thing hate standing in ine to use the equipment.

Anyway heres what typical workout looks like for me

10 minutes treadmill
40 mintes spinning(ouch! my thighs and ass!!)
10 minutes rowing
30 minutes circuit (weights)
15 minutes stairmaster

Try to do a min of 2hours. Want to be ready when summer hits :)
So what are your guys workouts like?

So this past Saturday on July 11th was the Annual nelson Mandela Lecture held at Johannesburg City Hall. This years speaker was Professor Mohammed Yunus from Bangladesh India. dot kno much about about but he sounds like a BOOS like dude so google him.

He was an amazing orator held the the audience capture through his entire lecture. And now to the subject of my Post. Prof Yunus is a philanthropist who started this bank in Bangladesh which gives loans mainly to women. He also helped found many companies to deal with the problems facing Bangladesh. So the giat of his lecture was this that South Africa should eradicate poverty in the next 20 yearsd and then create a poverty museum, Crazy right welll becuase no one in Sa will know what poverty looks like. Thats some pretty boss like ideas. Will try get the podcast of the lecture and post tall need to hear this guy speak. Anyway thought I'd share coz I thought it was really prolific stuff.
luv and light
