Never sent

Apparently firefox crashed before the email was sent... not after. So here in a nutshell is what happened today. The facility threw off my game by  having the bikes out of commission. I don't like to run two days in a row because i have had problems with shin splints and have two surgically repaired knees as it is. When i build up to it maybe but I think i'm pushing my luck.

This was the first day with my Independence Blue Cross book, so as more incentive if i go 120 days over the next year i get 150 dollars refunded for wellness credits or something... 10 days a month min to make this work out. Here's hoping.

Warm up 10 minute walk across campus.
  • 15 minutes on the treadmill. 5 min warm up @ 3.5 mph. 1 minute jog at 6 mph to get things going then 9 minutes at 5 % incline 3.8 mph power walk to stress calves and work on cardio in general
  • 3 sets of 15 @ 100 lbs on leg press.
  • 3 sets of 12 @ 70 lbs on leg extension
  • 3 sets of 12 @ 70 lbs on leg curl: felt better on the machine this week but still not good form
  • 3 sets of 12 with my whole fat ass as weight on Calf raises
  • 10 minutes of leg stretches 
10 minute warm down walk back to office. to hot out for this type of walk. might need to slow down. I'm still sweating by the time i get back to the office. the cool down is supposed to do just that cool me down... sheesh

No funny stories, no quips, just a simple man a iPod full of podcasts and an hour lunch.
