Run like a deer, girl. |
Saturday, Aug. 11th:
60 minutes spin class, with weight intervals 60 minutes Pilates class Feeling really wiped out today, as though I am crashing from a long period of tension. I did get through my workouts, though. |

Sunday, Aug. 12th:
20 minutes Stairmaster step mill, resistance at eight, aerobic intervals 60 minutes shoulders, biceps and triceps routine 40 minutes elliptical, intervals, from resistance of six to resistance of 11 Strange to be working out in the gym with the spin class and body bump class going on in other rooms. It was a little lonely, just me & a few dudes. But I don't want to take spin class five days in a row, as I've been doing. |

Monday, Aug. 13th:
6 AM spin class, 45 minutes, a good start to the day 60 minute circuit training class, which I made despite stopping on a street corner to talk with one of the co-op board members about the plans to build the floodwall & how that was progressing. |
Thanks! I am running a 5K in Sept and would like to also make that in under 30.
Monday morning, August 13: -Upper body routine minus bent over dumbbell rows because some meathead coach and his student put all their 80-90 lb dumbbells on the bench. How about some manners? -10 minutes very vigorous rowing. |
Tuesday morning, August 14:
-15 minutes sprint intervals on treadmill -Kettlebell swings, lunges |
Tuesday, Aug. 14:
20 minutes arc trainer, intervals, resistance at 10 and six 60 minute chest, shoulders and triceps routine Back in the evening, despite my dragging energy 60 minute spin class, with weight intervals |
Wednesday, Aug. 15th:
45 minute spin class, which was a struggle. My hamstrings and glutes were still horrendously sore from whatever we did on Monday night in circuit training. And I was just bodily tired. I nearly "bonked" as they say, and struggled to get through it. I used a foam roller afterward and I just downed some aspirin. A good long shower is also going to help. |
Tuesday evening, August 14:
-2 miles on bike path in 18:35 - not winning any races but I am totally winning against myself! Wednesday morning, August 15: -Upper body routine, a bit rushed, pulled a muscle :( but increased weights and sets :) -6 minutes on the stair stepper, woohoo |

Thursday, Aug. 16th:
60 minutes, yes, a whole hour, on the Stairmaster at the nicer Upstate gym Aerobic intervals, resistance at eight, and you better believe I held the rails after about 20 minutes But this may have helped my sore legs |
Friday, Aug. 17th:
Nobody on the roads, nobody in the streets I feel it in the air The summer's out of reach. 20 minutes Stairmaster step machine, aerobic intervals, resistance at eight 60 minutes back and biceps routine 40 minutes back on Stairmaster, same setting, and grabbing the rails toward the end, pouring sweat, glad that I won't be on this machine at this gym as frequently as I've been for the past few months. |
