This is how addicted I am to bike spinning
Edited on Tue Aug-28-07 07:05 PM by graywarrior
I just ordered a POLAR heart monitor watch for $109 and I cannot wait to get it. I can't wait, dammit! ! ! !


Oh yeah, I just recently became unemployed.

1. I cycle all the time and I've got a cool-o cyclometer for my bike
which has a heart monitor as one of its features and I've NEVER used it before. :eyes: I've been meaning to, but just haven't gotten around to it.

2. I just downloaded a program called "breakpal"
Edited on Tue Aug-28-07 07:17 PM by mycritters2
that pops up every half hour when I'm on the computer, with exercises to do. I need to be MADE to exercise, and am supposed to do aerobic exercise as part of my recovery from my recent illness. I nearly need a gun held to my head to do anything more strenuous than walking the dog (which, with a beagle who stops every other step to smell or eat something, isn't too strenuous).

I envy your enthusiasm for exercise!! I wish I were more like you. Yes, it's true:

:yourock:

3. What is "bike spinning?'
Eastern European dance that involves bikes?

I got two huge new Firewire drives today. 1.5 TB of of porn at my fingertips. That was my impulse buy for the next few months.

6. The job is a 6 week gig.
If I stayed with them for four quarters, I'd be able to collect unemployment while I'm am off. They only hired people during the four per year ratings seasons. Next work schedule is November. I am not planning on returning. I am heading toward New England shortly.
