      Hi from Sunny Wales!

      Yep, I'm joking this summer eh. Been here 5 years now and love it, even in the rain, but it's played havoc with my horse riding this year and Uni cuts short my time to ride, so I have up'd and joined the gym. Unfortunately I mistook the rack of dumbbells to mean they had free weights, so am training on a smiths squat for the first time, and machines, pulleys or dumbbells.

      I'm here to find out more to help me see how strong I can be, and generally enjoy lifting. Currently reading new rules for lifting for girls and Starting strength by Mark Rippetoe.

      Hoping I can stay put in my gym till we get some barbell free weights around December time - so I'm told. If not then I'll have to look elsewhere. Took a lot for me (emotionally) to join though so hoping not to have to move.

      Hello From Wales

      A local leisure centre.. means I can take my kids swimming under my membership too, but stupid me thought the huge rack of dumbbells meant that they'd have free weights.. they have barbells for the pulleys, and a smiths machine, but no barbbell to use the smiths weights other than in the rack. :(

      I'm hoping their promise of Decembers 'revamp' truly brings barbells. For now I'm working on squats with dumbells, straight legged deadlifts with them and moving onto one legged deadlifts. Oh and the smiths and machines of course.

      I really hate joining gyms so hoping I don't have to move. lol
