When I feel like I'm looking for excuses not to go to the gym, that may be a sign of slight depression. When I'm still not really into it after a bunch of cardio and weight-lifting, it's time to stop, so I did.
After dinner (mostly canteloupe), I did 2/3 of the new shoulder exercises. I tried to remember the third, and couldn't: both the things that seemed possible felt wrong, so I'll see if I remember before Saturday, and if not, get Apu to show me again. On Wednesday, Larry said "You will forget these, and do them wrong, and we'll show you again."
Cardio, 18 minutes, top heart rate 136
Calf machine, 80 pounds, 3 sets of 12
Leg press, 230 pounds, 2 sets of 12
Triceps pulldown, 45 pounds, 3 sets of 15
Wrist curl, 30 pounds, 2 sets of 15. Stopped after 2 sets because my elbows were starting to hurt.
Adjustable row, 80 pounds, 3 sets of 15
Leg extension, 60 pounds, 10, 4
Hip adduction, 100 pounds, 15, 14
Hip abduction, 85 pounds, 12
Stretches
Crunches, 11--stopped because of pain in my right shoulder, not wanting to go through that again
I did 60 each of the "like you're punching someone" forward pull on the elastic, and the pulling back that feels like the adjustable row. I think I need a heavier elastic. I'm supposed to be doing these until I wear myself out somewhat, not to a particular number: I counted because I suspect that, when I ask for more resistance, the physical therapist will want to know how much I'm doing with the current one.
