A fairly good workout:


Cardio, 30 minutes, heart rate up to 150
Bench press: 50 pounds, 12, then 8+2; 45 pounds, 7+5
Seated leg curl: 70 pounds, 3 sets of 15
Triceps pulldown: 40 pounds, 3 sets of 15
Tried the hip adduction, but the groin muscles were still sore from Sunday: after 4 reps at 110 pounds and 3 at 105, I gave up on that.
Crunches and arches, 3 sets of 15 each. A few cat-and-camel, and then the yoga tree: 2 on a side, repeated twice. Good balance on both sides today.
Adjustable row, 100 pounds, 3 sets of 15
Seated leg press, 140 pounds, 3 sets of 15 (with pauses because I was working in with someone else)
Leg extension, one leg at a time. Started at ten pounds, and did 8 reps on the left leg, and 10 on the right. Then took it down to 5 pounds, and did two sets of 10 on each leg.
Bicep curls: 35-pound bar, 3 sets of 15
Finished with stretches


The dentist started by asking after "your boyfriend", and expressed complete bewilderment when I said something like "He's fine, he was just in for a root canal." By the time I'd pointed out that [livejournal.com profile] cattitude has an appointment later this week, he'd given up, asked his name, and pulled the chart to refresh his memory. He then told me how wonderful Cattitude is, and that I'm very lucky, which I was happy to agree with.

Then he had his assistant take X-rays, and started cleaning my teeth while they developed. It was more painful, and therefore slower, than usual (I had to ask for more breaks). I have no cavities, but (several hours later) my teeth hurt, and the ginger snaps I bought this afternoon are going to have to wait until tomorrow. I've taken some aspirin, but even eating rice was painful--though at that point the aspirin hadn't had time to take effect--so tonight's dessert has been small pieces of Maya Gold chocolate, melting on my tongue without chewing.
