I took advantage of the holiday to get a proper long workout in. Then I met ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
roadnotes, baldanders, and cattitude for lunch at Mingala. This time we were able to check which pork dish we wanted, because I wrote it down in my Palm last time. That, basil duck, ginger chicken, the usual ginger salad (which I didn't like as much this time, for some reason) and chicken and corn soup (it was definitely soup weather) were a fine meal, and the conversation was better.
After lunch, Cattitude went off to do work-type stuff, and the rest of us walked around a little. Roadnotes and I bought socks, then they went in search of other clothes and a DVD or two, and I came home, with a stop for rye bread. About half the loaf is now in the freezer for future sandwiches; some may become sandwiches as soon as Wednesday morning (I don't have enough cold cuts to make a sandwich to take to work tomorrow).
Once home, I had tea, then did a bit of research work. An hour or so, then sent a report off to my client. We talked yesterday, and I want to make sure we're on the same page about his expectations. It's odd having gone from being significantly under-employed to having slightly over a full-time job.
The odd thing about the workout was that they were in the process of replacing the raised, padded floor of the free weight area, so that was blocked off with caution tape, the weight machine room was more cluttered than usual with weight benches, and when I went to do bicep curls, I had to carry the dumbbells into that room from their rack, which had been moved slightly from its usual position. I expect they'll be done before I'm in there again (Wednesday the earliest, even if I don't try out another branch near work instead).
Cardio, 23 minutes, plus one minute cooldown, top heart rate 146
Chest press, 65 pounds, 12, 11
Leg press, 270 pounds, 2 sets of 15; 260 pounds, 15

Calf raise, 80 pounds, 13, 11; 72.5 pounds, 13
Tricep pulldown, 45 pounds, 15, 11; 40 pounds 4 (just to complete the set)
Crunches, 3 sets of 30
Back arches, 3 sets of 17
Tree, sets of {4, 2, 2, 3} on each leg (I got distracted and confused about the count)
Balance lateral raise, 5 pounds each hand, 2 sets of 15; 2.5 pounds each hand, 15 walking in place on the dome
Glute machine, 50 pounds, 15 with each leg
Bicep curls, 10 pounds each hand, 2 sets of 20
