What’s wrong with this email?

Dear Emran, I hope you are well. Congratulations on your test results.

I am writing to inform you that I have decided to join a gym. From next Monday, I will attend the gym three times a week. I plan to use the running machine and exercise bike. After I have exercised, I will use the swimming pool.

I would be grateful if you could email me with some information about exercising because I know you spend a lot of time at the gym. How do I best use this equipment?  I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely,

Lindsay
