This was a fairly thorough, ordinary workout almost until the end, when one set of wrist curls made my left hand hurt enough that I not only stopped at one set, I found a trainer and got an ice pack for the hand. After icing it for a few minutes, I realized I hadn't stretched, so I went back out to the gym floor, did that, and then showered. The floor of the first shower stall I tried seemed vaguely slippery, though dry; instead of trying a random other stall, I used the wheelchair-accessible stall, which has a fold-down wooden seat, so I could sit down and wash and not worry about slipping. As long as I was sitting down, I soaped and rinsed the bottoms of my feet, which I don't generally do at the gym.
Then I went down to Chinatown, had lunch in the usual place, where they put me not at a table with several other single diners, but with several people who knew each other; they sounded like defense attorneys on lunch break from the court. Then up to Union Square for the Greenmarket: my shopping list was apple cider and a Bartlett pear.
I also got plum wine, made from yellow sugar plums; the people who were selling it (and other fruit wines) offered free tastes of all their products. (I don't like most grape-based wines, except in small quantities as ingredients for sauces.) I got a bunch of nice little beets, and one of great big leeks. I got carrots in two colors, neither of them yellow. I even got a demi-baguette, from the vendors who aren't coming up to Inwood this time of year. I wound up with four bags, heavy and awkward: the smaller daypack is supposed to discourage me from this temptation, but when that doesn't work, I have to carry everything using my hands and arms. Quite a haul for the 29th of November: no berries or fresh plums, but I had quite enough to carry, and my produce drawer is already too full to have room for the leeks.
Gym numbers:
Cardio, 18 minutes, top heart rate 151
Chest press, 70 pounds, 10
Calf raise, 80 pounds, 12, 11; 72.5 pounds, 11
Adjustable row, 70 pounds, 3 sets of 15
Leg press, 250 pounds, 3 sets of 12. It's getting a bit more comfortable than the last couple of workouts.
Tricep pulldown, on balance pad, 45 pounds, 2 sets of 15; 40 pounds, 13
Crunches, 3 sets of 30
Back arches, 3 sets of 17
Tree, 4 sets of {3 on each leg}
Balance lateral raise, 5 pounds each hand, 2 sets of 15; 2.5 pounds each, walking in place, 15
Bicep curls, 8 pounds each hand, 3 sets of 20
Hip adduction, 110 pounds, 11, 8
Balance ~fly, 50 pounds, 15 with each leg forward (the first two, with the left leg forward, were at, I think, 55, because I didn't take off an increment weight the previous user had put on until I noticed it felt heavily difficult)
Wrist curl, 35 pounds, 15
