I went right after work and spent a hour learning how the machines work. I really liked the trainer and kind of wish I had more time to work with her. In any case, my current plan is to keep with the pilates and yoga classes until I get bored with them. I might add some cardio into the mix and some of the weight machines and extra exercises she taught me will also do me good. Now if I skip class, I know what to do with myself!
