My usual starting area when I get to the gym. The Smith Machine.
It's a guided barbell system. I use an inclined bench under it. My pelvis/hip struggles with the flattened position.
I usually start by cleaning up the area (putting the weights in the right spots and cleaning the bench and bar). It's my OCD needing things nest before I can start.

No selfie today, just didn't feel like taking one.
But as I left the gym just now, I made this shot of it so thought I could share that with you instead. 😊

Another little workout video of me and the Smith Machine.
Let's gooooo πŸ’ͺ🏼

A quiet gym in the morning... 😊
This is the downstairs area. Upstairs are all the weight machines that use plates and such. The heavier lifting area they call it.
Not that the Smith Machine and the strength machines can't go heavy downstairs πŸ˜‰ I still haven't mastered them all πŸ˜‡ haha!

Cleaned up the area around the Smith Machine and am getting some shoulder and arm action in. Got 2x 5 kilo (11lbs) plates on the barbell. Barbell is 25 lbs (11,3 kilo). So together it's 47 lbs or 21,3 kilos. I was higher but had issues with my left shoulder. It's still not healed 100% so taking it easy. But hey, I'm doing it πŸ˜‰

Hey ho, let's gooooo πŸ’ͺ🏼
Back at the gym, tired and all...
But I can do this! Let's crush it (and then some πŸ˜‰).

CW picture: eye contact.

For those wondering about #Yanga I made a video!
(after 20 minutes I was able to try again and now it did work!)
Made the vid a bit smaller for this site. And added some of my favorite #Efteling #VillaVolta music to it.
Yanga mixed berries with caffeine. And it tastes so well πŸ˜‹

The #Yanga machine at the gym has a new taste. Yay let's try it!
It gives a warning there is caffeine in it. OK. Fair enough. And then... No water!
So I try again and now it says I already filled my bottle. 😭
I love Yanga water and it's a good price for nice cool water with a taste. But it malfunctions so often 😭 and as I go in the night, there's no staff to help me correct this.

The area I should train more in. Weights. But I get so easily distracted in it. Like now, sharing this on my phone πŸ˜‚.
With cardio, I just keep going and the distraction is different. Maybe because I write my blog while on the bike. Or because I watch series and movies while on the crosstrainer and treadmill. 😊
Anyway this is the strength bit. Upstairs there more but they work with plates. 😊

Heya @helligbird here the pictures I promised. 😊 It's just a small section at the gym and I have no idea how much use it gets. But I think if you can do this with a friend (or a few) it could be quite fun!
