Friday: Took day off work to stay home with grandson, so could not get to gym -- did workout at home.

Wanted to pool jog, but it was raining when I got up. I waited a while and it seemed to quit. Got the suit on, grabbed the towel, and headed out to the pool. Just as I put the ladder on, it started to sprinkle again. That would not have stopped me, but it also started to thunder. Didn't see any lightening, but did not want to take a chance. So, back into the house and back to the treadmill I went. Today it did not shut down at all during my walk.

Treadmill: 2 miles ~ 4 mph; increased incline to 6 at times, 5 and 4 rest of time.

LBWO: used free weights for the first time since joining gym in February! Seemed very strange, but think I worked muscles that have not been worked with machines. I'll need some glutamine for sure -- can already feel it!

Squats: 12 x 10, 10 x 20, 8 x 30, 6 x 40, 12 x 30
Leg extension: 12 x 60 (too light -- need more weight)
Lunges: 12 x 20, 10 x 20, 8 x 30, 6 x 40, 12 x 30
Straight Leg Deadlift: 12 x 30
Calf Raises: 12 x 20, 10 x 40, 8 x 40, 6 x 50, 12 x 40
Angeled Calf Raise: 12 x 40
Ab's (on new ab ball) Crunches: 12, 10, 8, 6, 24

And just so my upper body didn't miss out: vacuuming, scrubbing floors, dusting, etc. (the real old-fashioned work out!)

Need to find a way to get in more protein. I'm going to check out other's logs to see what they use.
