I left the house when
cattitude did, so I could go to the gym in the morning, which generally has worked well for me. Arriving after 9 means it's not crowded: it was nice to be able to just walk over and use whatever equipment I wanted.
After my workout, I ran enough errands that I think I covered about 3.5 miles on foot today, on top of a good chunk of cardio at the gym. I am not especially tired, though I may be in another hour or two. My quadriceps are a bit sore, but I pushed those at the gym, precisely because they were having some trouble with stairs at a party this weekend.
Cardio, 21 minutes, top heart rate 151
Rolled out IT band etc.
Hamstring bridge, 4 sets of 9
Squats leaning on ball, 3 sets of 15
Opposite arm and leg balance exercise, 8 pairs
Calf raises leaning on ball, 3 sets of 15
Standing on foam roller, including some on one leg (this time without anything handy to grab--with nobody else in the area, I figured there was loads of room to step down to the mat if I fumbled). Did okay on just the right foot, when I tried just the left I had to put the other leg down again right away.
A bunch of balancing lying on the roller
Biceps curls standing on blue squishy thing, 10 pounds each hand, 3 sets of 15
Lat pulldown on platform, 55 pounds, 2 sets of 12; one leg, 35 pounds, 12 on each leg
Back exercise on platform, 35 pounds, 12; 25 pounds, 2 sets of 12
Triceps on platform, 25 pounds, 3 sets of 12
