Back to the Y!
So now that my Y membership is free,Silver Sneakers!, I decided to get back into the off season pre-season conditioing! I still ride weather permitting but I wanted to work on upper body strength. So I am doing the weight machine 3x's a week and swimming 2x's per week. Will attempt to maintain this through mid May when we head to Europe for a 3 month cycling trip!
Now where is that ibuprofen??

Spouse and I were already Y members, but with my retirement and Medicare Advantage/Silver & Fit, what was costing us $600-$700 annually is now free. Spending a lot more time there now than before. New for me this year is free weights - trying to get in some weight bearing exercise.
