Wanting to have exercised isn't just a vague seeking after some concept of virtue, in my case: it's that I know that partway through a workout, my mood normally improves. It worked this time, even though I cut the workout short because I do have the sense Goddess gave a flatworm, and if the muscle I'm trying to heal hurts, I will stop.
Cardio, 20:30, top heart rate 144. A proper cardio workout, after too many that were barely more than warmup for weight-lifting. (33-35 minutes would be better; I'll get back there.)
Calf machine, 70 pounds, 12, 11 (on the eleventh, I suspected my left leg was about to cramp).
Leg press, 250 pounds, 2 sets of 12. All those weight plates probably count as upper-body exercise, though I carried them only short distances and not at or above shoulder level with my right arm.
Wrist curls, 30 pounds, 3 sets of 15
Adjustable row, 90 pounds, 2 sets of 15; 80 pounds, 13
Back arch with physio ball, 3 sets of 15. On the second and third sets, I used a 65-cm ball instead of my usual 55-cm, which was feeling lower than I wanted. That asks more of my legs, and may not have been ideal.
Yoga tree, 2 sets of {4 on each leg}, and I didn't take my shoes off this time
Hip adduction, 90 pounds, 15, 6. It suddenly felt hard and I didn't feel like pushing myself.
Skipped the stretch machine because almost everything done there seems to have the potential to stress the shoulder. I did make a point of stretching after the hip exercise, as well as the others (I don't have a really good stretch for that, and usually don't worry about it, because I can use the machine).
I just did the usual exercises with elastic for my shoulder, and those went fine; I noticed that my red elastic is wearing out, and I should ask for a replacement. (It has little holes.)
