May Challenge - Weight Training

Honestly, I don't mind training with weights, I just HATE going to the gym, which would explain why most of my weight training takes place at home with my Kettlebell and Sandbag.

But I've realised that I need to lift heavier weights if I am going to see any real changes. We have a small gym in our apartment complex, but the big weights are on the Smith Machine. A Smith Machine is all well and good but free weights are better for form, using the correct muscles and for core and stabilisation.

Thankfully my workplace has a very decent gym, and is within a 10 minute walk from home.

So my challenge for the month of May is to use my workplace gym at least twice per week! I should use it more, I know, and will do my best, but the days I don't use it, my complex gym will do the trick!
