Gym Routine

I finally sat down and organised my gym routine. Up until now I had been playing it a little fast and loose, changing things up, and choosing which class to do on a day-to-day basis. This was not the best approach, it lead to me skipping classes and most of the time choosing easier options. It also gave me too many choices: did I want to finish early, so I could do an easier class and ignore the mounting pile of reading I had? Or did I want to study longer and then do a harder class?

 Being presented with too many choices makes me anxious, not being organised also makes me anxious. I can be a highly anxious person! Especially when confronted with inconsequential choices. In general I think that the consequences of each choice are far more significant then they really are. I over analyse things, and doing this about which classes to go to both fills me with anxiety, and wastes my time. 

To stop this I have locked in a trial gym timetable. (Of course it's just a TRIAL timetable, because I will have to analyse how it affected my study patterns, sleep patterns, socialising time, relaxation time, and how it fitted in with my husband's schedule. All these factors will be re-evaluated after the trial period. See! You're starting to believe me that I over  think things).
