Thanks for starting the thread.

Tues May 1 -- Did 32 minutes on the elliptical machine, plus 100
leg lifts on each side.
I was still extremely sore from Saturday's workout, but because May Day
is a public holiday here, I had extra time to coax myself through the
exercise anyway.

Wed May 2 -- Did 21 minutes of biking. Had some intense intervals,
but otherwise just the bare-bones minimum workout.

Thurs May 3 is a very tight schedule and I might not be able to
work out after work, but I did a few lame iso-whatever exercises
in my office.

Thurs didn't get to gym, as expected.

Fri did weight lifting, one set on each of the machines
at my condo's little gym, except not incline press.

Saturday - unless my husband watches the kids in the early
morning, I'll have only a narrow window of time in the early
afternoon and I hope I don't let it slip away without exercising.

Felt crappy and struggled to do cardio on the elliptical machine
with slow speed and easy resistance. After a while the blood was
pumping enough to increase the intensity a bit. 23 minutes of cardio
plus modified push-ups.

Determined,
Lisa

Sunday did 22 min on the bike at resistance levels 7 and 8, which isn't
too bad. Also some row/bicep weight lifting. The soreness in my
triceps (sore but not aching) means my push-ups the previous day
were on target.

Monday's exercise will be a long round-trip walk while pushing a double
stroller. I hope it doesn't rain.

Then 1 set each of biceps and lat pulldown weights.
