Gym session, 30 September

Again, I mostly did stuff with Emilie. She gave me a new stretch, which involved lying on the foam roller on a table so I could stretch my arms further. For that, she was in position to catch me if necessary; I got comfortable with the foam roller by reminding myself that I couldn't fall off the floor (and couldn't fall far to the floor, starting on a six-inch-diameter object), but a table three feet off the floor is different. Emilie also says I'm getting stronger, which is good.

( a bit more detail )

I also let myself be tempted by a sale and bought some more training sessions; given that Emilie will be away for two weeks after my next appointment (a belated honeymoon), plus Thanksgiving and possibly other travel, this will probably run until the end of 2010, unless I deliberately save a couple of them in case I decide I need a refresher.

And then I will go back to working solo, but probably still do a lot of the stuff I've been doing with Emilie, and less with the weight machines.
