60 minutes elliptical, cranked that sucker to resistance of 10, which means at times it hit 13, and oh Lord, this was tough
Squatting in the Smith machine
Also some reps on the adductor machine
4 miles or so round London galleries, Tube and streets. (The steps in the Tube have been particularly good for me these last few weeks. Trying to think of something similar in my rural life.)
January 2: 110 minutes bikram yoga. The instructor was mean and held us too long in lots of poses while correcting students. Everyone was rolling their eyes. I didn't care for her the first time I took her class....now I really don't care for her. Hypercritical but hopefully I burned a few extra calories glaring at her.
30 minutes Stairmaster, and this felt good
60 minutes back & biceps routine
I'm amazed to find that I can handle higher weights, which has pushed me out of a rut.
And yes, I trudged through a still settling-out blizzard to walk to my gym, where the manager was triumphant over having opened on time, when nearly nothing else was open for miles except the newstand where the guys who drive plows buy their coffee.
Nothing as yet and it's about 5.30 pm. (Rather a full day, getting back in order after being away for so long + electricity emergency.) I don't usually exercise in the evening but I think I'll try to fit in some stretches.
60 minute spin class, and I kept peddling through the weight intervals, to give my upper body a rest
60 minute Pilates mat class, the instructor being tough, talking about the new year
