Better than I expected, in fact, given that I had to remind myself that it isn't necessary to want to go to the gym, as long as I do it. (Unlike an annoying job, I enjoy doing this once I get there.)


Cardio, 30 minutes, top heart rate 154, lots of time in the mid-to-upper 140s. This after [userinfo] cattitude comforted me, on the way to the train, by pointing out that a lower maximum heart rate is a good sign.

Bench press, 50 pounds, 14, 14, 12
Seated leg curl, 80 pounds, 3 sets of 15
Calf machine, 30 pounds, 3 sets of 12
Adjustable row, 110 pounds, 2 sets of 15 (a third set seemed like a bad idea, so I stopped at 2)
Triceps pulldown, 40 pounds, 3 sets of 15

Crunches, 4 sets of 20
Back arches, 3 sets of 16
Cat-and-camel
Tree

Hip adduction, 115 pounds, 13, 13, 12
Hip abduction, 100 pounds, 2; 95 pounds, 11. Stopped after the one set because of stiffness

Assisted chin-up, reduced the assist to setting 19 (from max=20): 8, 5
Leg press, 200 pounds, 2 sets of 12
Bicep curls, 40-pound bar, 2 sets of 12; 35-pound bar, 15
Wrist curls (underhand), 5 pounds each hand, 3 sets of 15

Stretches: my quadriceps were tight, so I did a couple of extra on that stretch


(This is a second try, since I'd accidentally logged in to my test journal, which I use about every other month. No harm in having stuff there, though.)
