... Then I got dressed, hemmed, hawed, drove to the gym, checked in and got the key, then exercised for ~30 minutes: - "Hauling"--120# 6 times (this felt quite easy)
- Baker-analyzed--50# 10 times (little less easy than above)
- toe raises--12 on 1st round, 11 on 2nd round (ouch! calves!)
- chinups--140# 10 times on 1st round, 9 times on 2nd round
- pullups--140# 8 times on 1st round, 11 times on 2nd round
- squats--8 of them (ow, poor right knee was )
- leglifts--59+10 seconds
- sprints--15 seconds, 4 times (each followed by 45 seconds resting)
I had intended to do everything twice, but ran out of time. No pushups today . I just have to get my act together and leave at least 90 minutes before they close.
I'm glad I went. I feel good about myself for going, in spite of the fact that my gym buddy called and cancelled at the last minute (grr). I actually prefer lifting days when alone, so since he's only going Tu and Fri, I'll make my lifting days now be M, Th, and Sa. Then I can keep him company on Tu and Fri, when I'm supposed to do elliptical slow and prolonged stuff (very boring, but I vary the resistance and incline then pretend that I'm slogging up a mountain that's really muddy! lol ).
I'll have to see how 3 lifting sessions per week works---will that give me enough recovery time in between?? We'll see...
