I have had my appointment with Kevin the instructor at the Bishopdale YMCA Gym. He got me to run on the treadmill and do some lunges while he filmed me. While I was a little aprehensive about being filmed, it turned out to be very educational. Evidently, I turn my knees inwards when running and lunging. To fix this, Kevin has made up a programme for me to work on my gleut (bottom) and ITB (iliotibial band - which is a group of muscles on the thigh which runs from the bottom to knee) muscles...which will help encourage me to point my knees out.
We didn't get time to go over these exercises (involving the weight machines) so we will do this on Tuesday morning.
Meanwhile, I am still going to the gym and doing various cardio workouts. This morning I worked off 735 calories - which is the most so far.
I have also decided to go back on Celebrity Slim, which some of you know I used at the beginning of last year to lose 12kgs. I am only doing it Monday to Friday...for a kickstart. This involves drinking Celebrity Slim shakes for breakfast and lunch, with snacks in between and a regular sized meal for dinner. I am to rule out all carbs. So I will be having plenty of green salads, tuna etc...plus my favourite snack of celery or capsicum with peanut butter.
Anyway...off for a walk now.
