The UFC Gym in Waikele is now open. I brought my two girls on Saturday to see the new place and it was quite busy. I was excited to see the new gym as well as the kids club area since I will finally be able to use my benefit of free child care while I work out. I am an Ultimate Elite member while the rest of my family have the basic fitness level memberships. We were unable to work out because the kids club was only having an open house and not taking any drop ins.
This morning, I went back with my two girls and Emily LOVED it in the kids club. When we dropped her off she basically forgot I existed and had a blast running around in that large carpeted room. My teenage daughter and I did cardio and lifted some weights. It felt GREAT! I never realized how much I missed lifting. I can't wait to get back in there with my husband so I can hit the bench. Of all the things I love to do, benching is one of my favorites. I don't bench unless he's there because quite frankly, it's a bit odd to have some other guys "plums" in my face as he spots me.
While there, Shelby wanted to try the bench. So, I let her. I told her the bar is 45 lbs so be ready. It was hilarious. She didn't realize that it required more skill to bench a bar as compared to using the machines. She wobbled all over the place and I was worried that she'd drop the bar but she did push it a few times. So, I got on the bench and pressed the bar. I honestly thought I'd throw it up into the ceiling. LOL! Whoa. I wanted to badly to put some plates on there but I knew Shelby couldn't spot me so I didn't dare try.
While using the weight machines, Shelby wanted to "challenge" me. OK. So, I'd do my set and then she'd hop on the machine. She was floating herself off the seat before she could move the weights. HA! I win. Come on girl!
If we can get up early enough (3:30 am) tomorrow, then me and hubby are going to the gym in the AM to bring sexy back. I am already highly doubting we'll get up being that tis 9:30 pm now and none of us are sleeping yet. But, we'll see. I'd much rather go tomorrow night at 7 cause I hear theres a boxing class. MY FAVE!
