Yesterday was a big day for me!  I had my very first training session with KURUP FIT since my son was born.  I was expecting it to be difficult as I’m fairly out of shape but I didn’t expect it to be THAT hard!  Just the warm up knackered me out.. and then we got started.

We worked the whole body with various different exercises.  We started with legs which involved lots of squats and kettle bells.  Then we moved onto the arms.  When I started training I could only do six press ups, in my assessment I got up to 23, and yesterday I managed 11, (and less as the session went on), but better than I expected!

I’m not sure why I was surprised about the fact that my stomach was the hardest to work out, but I couldn’t do a full sit up!  This was a first and I can honestly say it shocked me.  In the end I managed to do a few but I was using the momentum of rocking my shoulders up rather than actually doing a proper sit up.. gotta start somewhere and surely it can only get better!

Stats!  We took some measurements: arm, chest, waist, hips and thigh, over all I’m between two to five centimetres bigger in each place than I was at my assessment.  This is really useful info to gage my progress and also I love knowing figures like that!  We also took photos of me front and side on so I can do a before and after at a later date.

Overall – a hard but great first session with Sharm.  Can’t wait until the next one! 🙂
