If there was a machine in the gym that makes me turn the other way, it would be the Stairmaster. It was the only machine that I never wanted to try out… until yesterday evening.
I decided to finally face my fears and challenge myself to at least work out on the Stairmaster for only five minutes. Instead, what ended up happening was that I actually stayed on it for 20 minutes! AND I actually loved it! It wasn’t easy, and at times I felt like giving up, but I kept on going… and going… and going!
I always thought I didn’t have the endurance needed to ever try that machine, but I proved myself wrong. It’s not about whether or not I think I can endure a workout, it’s all about believing that I can do anything I set my mind to.

Whoo hoo! You go, girl!
I hate that machine because I always get my toes stuck – but of course, I have on shoes so I don’t get hurt.
