Exercise - Apr 16th, 2008 & Today’s Totals

The morning was 10 mins of a walking DVD which for some reason gave me a pain on the ball of one foot. I’ve done it before, but I was doing it on the new rubber mat, so that may have contributed to it. So I switched over and did a 20 min session and a 30-min session on the treadmill. In the afternoon I did a 15-min warm-up on the treadmill, followed by:

  Sets Reps Set 1 Set 2 Set 3
A: Barbell Squat 3 10 50/10 50/10 55/10
B1: Push-up (split knees/toes) 3 10 5 & 5 5 & 5 5 & 5
B2: Seated Row (Bent-over Row) 3 10 55/10 55/10 60/10
C1: Step-up 3 10 12e/10 12e/10 15e/10
C2: Prone Jackknife 3 12 12 12 12

Where there is a single number that confirms that I did the number of reps called for. Where there are two numbers the first is the amount of weight I used, followed by reps.

Followed with another 15 mins on the treadmill.  Then I helped carry the solar blanket and roller over to the pool, and covered it. And yes, cranked on the heater. The water is 46F, so that usually means a little longer than two days to get to a decent temp. Although it’s warmish (even now) so who knows. I’m starting to wonder how much higher I can go on the squat. Not the ability to use a higher weight, but the ability to get it down off my shoulders after. I still plan to keep adding 5 pounds each time, but we’ll see.
