  • Saturday, Nov. 17: Lots of DB shoulder presses, DB bench presses, DB bent over rows, lat pulldown, KB swings, squats, windmills, 20 minutes on the elliptical.

    Monday, Nov. 19: 20 minutes HIIT on treadmill. Will feel guilty if I don't also lift later on.
  • Nov. 19: two 40 min dog walks (2.25mi each), 60 min elliptical
  • Tuesday, Nov. 20th:

    15 minutes Stairmaster stepmill, aerobic intervals, resistance at nine
    60 minutes chest, shoulders and triceps routine

    Did this during my lunch hour, rather than first thing in the morning. I can't believe how good I feel now, as if I got a new wave of energy for the rest of the day.

    60 minute spin class with weight interval in the middle
  • Nov. 20: two 40 min dog walks (2.25mi each), spin class

    We're going to a science museum tomorrow that's supposed to be really cool. But now I have to figure out how to fit in a workout since the gym will be closed on Thursday (gasp!). Friday there's a special 75 min "burn off the bird" spin class. I am already signed up.
  • Tuesday, 11/20:

    -DB bench press, DB overhead press, lat pull downs, goblet squats with 55 lb dumbbell
  • Wednesday, Nov. 21st:

    60 minute spin class on my lunch hour, with weight intervals

    A rowdy, happy, energetic class today, mostly health care professionals from the hospital across the street. Usually, I'm in Connecticut on Wednesdays, as it's the day we hold our weekly staff meetings, so I'd never been to this class before today.
  • Nov. 21: two 40 min dog walks (2.25mi each); no gym
  • Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 22:

    60 minutes elliptical, resistance at nine, aerobic intervals, alternating backward & forward
  • Quote: November 16: sick and didn't do any exercise

    November 17: 90 minutes Bikram yoga

    November 18: 90 minutes Bikram yoga-- it was hard tonight. Maybe extra humidity??

  • Black Friday, Nov. 23:

    20 minutes Stairmaster stepmill, aerobic intervals, resistance at nine
    60 minutes back & biceps routine
    40 minutes back on Stairmaster, with the resistance dropped to eight, and this was a slog.
  • Saturday, Nov. 24th:

    60 minutes on Cybex arc trainer, 1:1 intervals, and oh, this was tough. Resistance at nine for a half-hour, then I had to drop to eight for the last half-hour. That meant resistance of 50-45 pounds during the resting minutes and 75 pounds during the working minutes. I made it, though.
