Exercise

I have been doing some exercises for a little over a week. I wanted to get back into better health, be stronger and have more endurance. So instead of resolving to start doing it in January 2018, I started doing it when I decided I wanted to do it.
I was a little embarrassed of what I was doing, because I felt silly, so I didn’t tell anyone. I just went downstairs when I took the dogs for playtime, and would do sit-ups, jumping jacks, and push ups.
Day one I did as many of each as I could, without pushing myself too much. That was my general baseline of ability for myself. (I was on the first day of my period when I started exercising so I wasn’t going to push myself too hard, since I was already hurting)
I continued doing the exercises every day, doing what I was comfortable with and not pushing too hard, just trying to do 1 or 5 more than I had before if I felt like I could.
I skipped Christmas Day and the day after.

Relly saw my notebook with my record of exercises, and we talked about it.
He came downstairs with me and kept me company while I exercised.
After the first day, he started helping out with pointers, is holding my feet for sit-ups, and helping me keep count of how many of each I’m doing.
Every time, he has pushed me to do better, and do more than I had expected of myself.

Today was the third (?) day with his help, and it’s the first time I’ve actually been pushed to my limits while exercising. Every time before, when I was younger, I was with a group, and the group always had to quit before I was tired. With it being just me, he is pushing ME, not a group of people who are less durable than I am. I’ve been sore before, but this is amazing.

Also, being yelled at and pushed to do more physical exercise until I don’t think I can take it is a huge non sexual fantasy of mine. So it really cements this feeling of being owned.

He says we can buy weights for me to work with on some of the stuff I want to accomplish. I’m very excited about that.
(Target has 20% off some of its exercise stuff including weights)

What I want to be able to do is pick up a box and hold it, and then lift it up and put it on a high shelf.
At the moment I can pick up and carry something, but shifting to the lift mode just doesn’t work. So I want to work on building the lift strength in case I need to be able to do that at some point.
