Home from the tour and 'ready to make the eight months until the next grand Australian tour, count. :-).  Many goals, but this is my fitness goal with action plan and to do list.

Goal, maintain and build fitness, bone density, firm and tone and release excess weight.
Action plan to achieve my goal. Join the Gym and continue to eat healthy, balanced, portion controlled meals i enjoy and continue to nurture my emotional needs in ways that do not involve eating..
To do list-Go to Gym and Blog information posts about many aspects of self nurture, to share with others. time management, art tuition, heaps more, as time allows. The nutrition and self nurture, is almost automatic now, but I'll continue to blog about these things to keep my commitment to self care, high :-).

“There is a difference between interest and commitment.

When you are interested in doing something, you do it only when it’s convenient.

When your committed to something, you accept no excuses; only results”.

Yesterday I arrived home from our tour, began the spring cleaning, which was necessary because field mice had got into our home while we had been a way for over four months.   I had it high on a list of priorities to do once I got home, to rejoin gym.  That evening, I went to gym, exercised in the hydrotherapy pool for 30 minutes then swam laps for a further 30 minutes.

Today I worked hard at the spring cleaning once more, ate healthy throughout the day, according to my appetite, and tonight I went back to my Aquamoves gym, enrolled in a over 50’s Gym and Group Fitness membership which allows me unlimited access to the gymnasium, pools, spa, sauna, hydrotherapy pool, aqua aerobics, group fitness classes and of these classes of, Body Pump, Body step, Body Combat, Body Balance, Body Jam, Body Vive,.

There are special, over 50’s classes every morning, don’t be fooled and think over 50’s classes are soft options as i find the over 50’s work out harder than the 20 year olds,  I’ll be a while catching up with this fit 50 plus group.


The membership will cost me $21.40 a fortnight with a 4.5% price increase this October and I can attend 8 months out of the year then suspend my membership to go on tour, for 4 months out of every year, and pay no fees during this time.  I can also have my membership suspended without paying a fee, any time with a doctor’s letter saying I am unfit to attend.

I am having a personal fitness assessment tomorrow morning and I can re request this as often as I like to keep track of my progress. J

Reg and I intend to walk to the lake in our village, most evenings around sunset and of course I am currently spring cleaning and soon will be gardening so I plan to be active as much as I am able to as most of my interests, writing, art, reading, are relatively sedentary activities and I need balance in my life to maintain the fitness I desire.
