Gym

Hello people. Today I am talking about the gym. Here it goes.

My family except for Alex all goes to the gym to workout. Alex normally plays on his iPod in the lobby. We go to the wellness center at the hospital. It uses a computer system to keep track of your exercise program so you know if you are getting better and you can keep track of your progress. We all have digital keys that you plug into an exercise machine so the machine knows what is going on.

When you first get there you plug your key into a computer and it tells you what your first exercise machine is. I have running on the treadmill first and I run for fifteen minutes and walk for ten minutes. The machine tells you how many miles you ran, how fast the treadmill is going and your time. At the end it says your next machine. After that I have weights.

The weight machines tell you if you are lifting at the right speed, if you are lifting the weight high or low enough, how many you have done, and how much weight you should lift. I do weights to work my legs, chest, shoulders, biceps, and abs. Then I do the bike. I do it for fifteen minutes on effort level two or three. Lastly I get on the rower machine until Dad is done. When you are done you plug your key in and it tells you how well you did. The gym also has a pool but I have not used it yet.

  1. Wow Ashton, that sounds great!! We do the same thing but our machines are not as fancy-they do not track your activity. (The trainers at the gym do) Grandmama
