redbird: me with purple hair (purple)
([personal profile] redbird Oct. 26th, 2010 08:42 pm)
After two weeks in a row of only working out once each week, I got to the gym tonight. Since I have an appointment with Emilie Thursday, that should mean twice this week. Tonight was weights and other muscle stuff, no cardio.

Squats with physio ball (for quads, mostly), 2 sets of 15
Calf raise using ball, 2 sets of 15
Biceps curls (on ball), 10 pounds each hand, 2 sets of 20
1/2 foam roller: some just standing, the stretch behind my back, plus balance lateral raise, 3 pounds each hand, 2 sets of 15. Less balanced than sometimes, I fell off several times. (This is only annoying, not painful: starting so close to the ground, "falling" basically means slipping so my heels or toes touch the floor.)
Row sitting on ball, 25 pounds (also shows as "5" on that machine), 3 sets of 15
Balance ~fly, 20/4, 15 with each leg forward
Chest press, 50 pounds, 2 sets of 12
A little bit of the balance stuff lying on the foam roller (3 limbs in air: this one went a lot smoother than the standing on the half roller).

In the spirit of "If someone's actions have had a positive influence on your life, you should let them know":

In September, I began a regular regimen of working out. Among the forces leading me in that direction is your regular posting of your workout numbers. I don't understand what many of them mean, but that's not important. What's important is that you do it regularly and record the results.

Thanks.
