Kaiba's Fitness Journal
 

This is the begining of my fitness journal. I had been incorporating my fitness information in my regular journal, but for a faster reference, I've decided to start a "gym log".

7/12/02
 

Lower body lifting: 10 lb ankle weights
Upper body lifting: 11 lb free weights

7/13/02
 

Upper body lifting:
15lb free weights
(only did half a work out (chest and back) because my left hand is killing me.)

7/14/02
 

No workout today. Despite the fact that I was going to use today as my rest day, I was incredibly sick. So I guess that I killed two birds with that one.....

7/15/02 (Part I)
 

7 am: 1/2 Run/ 1/2 walk 1 1/4 miles (~12 minutes) 80 degrees/53% humidity

NOTE TO SELF:
 

Tomorrow and all cardio days hereafter:

Choose your outfit CAREFULLY!!!!! Do not wear size large spandex shorts. You'll be able to run more and walk less because you won't have to keep hiking the waist up from the hips and pulling the legs down to where they should be. :o

Full Lower Body Lifting: 10 lb ankle weights.

7/16/02 (Part I)
 

9 am- 1/4 run - 3/4 walk (a little more than a mile) I wanted to run more, but I've got a migraine from hell today. I wasn't going to go out, but I did.......

4:45 pm: Upper Body Lifting

I'm doing it 45 minutes early, but I've got things that I want to get done. Otherwise, still on schedual.......

Upper body lifting details:
 

Forgot to add this above:
10 lb free weights for the first set of 20, then 15 lb free weights until exhaustion.
My arms now feel like jello...... :)

8:30am: Yoga and stretching.
I've started to get so tight I decided to just stretch. I needed it, and now that I'm getting un-bloated I'm feeling better.

7/17/02 (Part II)
 

Lower body lifting - 10lb ankle weights
I need to get some heavier weights

7/18/02 (Part I)
 

Upper Body Lifting: 15 lbs weights, to muscle exhaustion (approx. 2 sets of 20 reps.)

My arms feel like jello, yet the muscles are really tight. I need to stretch them out some more.

Possible Workout plan change
 

Due to an unexpected family illness, I'm going to have to modify my workouts for approximately 4 days. I really don't want to pack up my free weights and drag them 300 miles and there is no where for me to lift. I'm thinking of increasing my cardio and incorporating some isometrics to tide me over.

7/18/02 (Part II)
 

5:30pm - 30 minutes full body motion stationary bike.

I feel good.......:)
