Tuesday

Good workout today with the PT guy.  I haven't been to his class for quite a few weeks.  Just because of the need to prioritise day trips to Wellington.  Today was good though.   Totally "smashed it"and it felt good for doing so.  Combination of "old" tracks I like, bit of Seal etc, plus some of his "boys music".   I find his timing good in terms of pacing yourself.  I'm not sure why it feels different from the T lady or the Hutt girl, because they do the same thing, but it's different.

Anyway, the PT guy is quite friendly to me now when I'm at the gym.  When I say friendly, I mean he makes an effort to say hello.  That's all. Just hi or hello.  I know that doesn't sound much, but both for the PT guy (and me) that's quite significant progress in our communication.  At first I thought he was scoping me as a potential client - which a) is not a possibility at present with my irregular income b) I don't need the motivation of a PT because Taupo is pressing on in c) I consider all RPM instructors my PT in their own way, although some are more favoured than others :-)

I've concluded now though its sort of the PT's way of recognising I'm making progress in the journey.  All be it slow progress.  That actually feels quite good in its own way, because as I have posted previously he's one of the gym guys who has been around at the Terrace since I've been going - so probably when he was a newbie.  So, he's seen me come and go, go up and down in weight. 

Now he's seeing me "smash it" (in my own way) in his RPM class.  Wait for the next 3 months man.  This is when its going to get good!!
