After two weeks of going to the gym (10 days)... I can lift twice the amount I could to start with. And I can now do nearly 2 and a half laps on the bike on setting 10 (5k laps) in 30 minutes. I've discovered endorphins. The last two days especially. Feeling the smokers lungs now... But having a few minutes of feeling 'in the zone'. Hypnotic... Rhythmic sounds of people on the treadmill, rhythmic breathing (for a while anyway), something certainly kicks in.
My leg hurt 'cause I thought it would help to set the weight further up my leg... But I shouldn't have. Did it properly today and no pain. Muscles have adapted so they don't hurt afterwards anymore (even though I'm pushing them to failure where the last lift simply won't go through with good form). Better with the smoking... But still not quit exactly... Need to throw them out of the house... First thing in the morning and in the evening is the hardest time. Will throw them away tomorrow.
