My shoulders have been feeling a bit tired and even sore of late, in part because I'm doing a sort of proofing that involves lots of initialing and turning pages, with relatively little time actually looking at each page (and thus little chance to rest the arm). That's reflected in this workout.
The gym was less crowded than Monday, and I'd left work early, so I got all this done quite a bit earlier; not having to wait for machines or mat space is also much more relaxed.
Cardio, 19 minutes, top heart rate 157. Somewhere around minute 14 or 15, I noticed I'd left the resistance/level at 7, my usual starting point, instead of taking it up to 8 after three minutes. So I did a few minutes at 9 and then a little at 8. (At 7 the heart rate had sat steadily around 135.)
Chest press, 70 pounds, 12, 4; 65 pounds, 3. I haven't done this one in a bit, because it's been tied up by the Xpressline.
Leg press, 260 pounds, 3 sets of 15
Balance ~fly, 55 pounds, 15 with each leg forward
Slanted calf raise, 50 pounds, 3 sets of 15
Biceps curls, 10 pounds each hand, 3 sets of 20
Crunches, 3 sets of 30
Back arches, 25, 17
Tree, 5 sets of {3 on each leg}
Balance lateral raise, 2.5 pounds each hand, 15, then 15 walking in place
