30 seconds is so little. There’s no time to think. You just go.

I’m glad I’ve been wise with my weight selection. I know if I push myself too hard, I’ll hit that wall. I know I don’t need to kill myself for the workout to be effective.

Intervals were hard. Man. I think adding a fifth interval would be counterproductive. I don’t know. Just trying to push myself, that’s all.

I noticed that there’s a new gym openning up near me. http://zoogym.com/ Cheaper than the Y, seems promising, however I believe it states that there’s no showers. Call me silly, but I’m freaking disgusting after I work out. If you don’t break enough of a sweat to make you want to strip naked and clean yourself, you’re not working hard enough. Heh. We’ll see.
