It's warm and sunny right now (after an overcast morning), so I went for a walk around the neighborhood. I covered something over a mile, much of it hilly (the half block of 99th Avenue NE that leads down to the Bellevue Marina is seriously steep), and worked up a bit of a sweat in the process. Then I decided to stop in at the building fitness room (despite not being specifically dressed for a workout), taking advantage of being thoroughly warmed up. So, a nice bit of workout, then home and a shower.
By the way, this is a new gym/exercise icon, a detail of a picture of me standing on a foam roller, as balance practice. (I tried using the whole image, but it didn't work at 100×100.)
I started with the resistance machines this time, and then moved to the dumbbells and body weight exercises:
Lat pulldown, 25 pounds, 3 sets of 12: one set on both feet, then two on one foot at a time.
Triceps pulldown, 17.5 pounds, 2 sets of 12
Chest press, 40 pounds, 2 sets of 12
Seated leg curl, 45 pounds, 2 sets of 12
Seated row, 40 pounds, 12, 7
Biceps curls (sitting on ball), 10 pounds each hand, 2 sets of 15
Squats, 3 sets of 15
Calf raises, 3 sets of 15
Standing/leaning pushups, 11, 10
