It’s been a wet week for #30DaysOfBiking and also a very busy week at work, and so I missed a bunch of days.
And on our way into personal training at Movati, Sarah and I spotted this sign below. A very cheerful woman at the front desk saw us looking at it and said, hey I’m teaching the Glow ride on Saturday. You should come. It’ll be fun.
So that’s where I was this morning. (Sarah was off helping to put in the docks at the Guelph Community Boating Club. That’s a different kind of workout that involves waders.)
How was the Glow Ride? I liked the aesthetics–dark with glow sticks. The instructor was friendly and helpful. I love that they offer earplugs if you’re concerned about the loud music. I didn’t take them, but I liked that they were on offer.
Movati has new bikes which display all the things: power, cadence, speed, and distance. They’re easy to adjust for seat height. As usual, I hate all the dancing around on the bike. I’m also not a fan of upper-body exercises on the bike with tiny weights. But there was lots of the stuff I do like, climbing and sprinting. I didn’t have any bad effects with my hiatal hernia but I made sure to eat a few hours before the class, not right before. I also didn’t do anything too intense. See here for why.
Anyway, it’s a very rainy weekend and we’re back to chores and weekday work stuff that’s spilled over, way over, into the weekend. But it felt good to get some movement in.
