As one of the cost cutting measures, Nortel shut down its own fitness facility Aralia here in Richardson last month and offered subsidized membership to Bally's Total Fitness to its employees. I think it's a great move even though the employees now pay twice the amount, we get to go to any Bally's location.

I didn't think I worked my biceps that hard yesterday but boy, oh, boy, this morning both of my biceps really ached. I guess the comforting thought is that I can expect muscle growth and bigger biceps. These days, if I cannot make it to Krav Maga class, it's 20 minutes weight exercise and 20 minutes of cardio exercise at Bally's.
