Mid body today, since I need to spare my arms for band practice.

situps: 3 sets of 10-11
side leg raises: 3 sets: 10, 8, 7 (harder than it looks. )
butt blasters: 3 sets of 11. Getting too easy; I need to start doing it with shoes on.

My elbows are a little sore from band last night, so I decided to lay off the upper body for now. I did a mish-mash lower/mid body workout of anything that wasn't sore.

squats: 3 sets of 12-13
calf raises: 3 sets of 10-11
situps: 3 sets of 12-13

Wow, I had a lot of extra "oomph", probably from my unintended carb-up of pizza and beer.

Didn't get any resistance training in yesterday (Thursday); just a walk to and from the grocery store. I'll call it light cardio.

Got in a breif upper body workout:
situps: 3 sets of 10-11
pushups: 3 sets of 8-10

Also walked to the homebrew store after work.

No official workout this weekend, but yesterday I dyed my hair, which is a feat of endurance for arm/shoulder strength. I also bottled my beer, which left my legs and back sore. I won't go into details.

Official workouts suspended until my nasty sinus infection clears up. I feel like my head is going to explode.

I actually felt pretty good yesterday afternoon, so I walked to the grocery store and did all the "heavy" groceries (detergent, etc). That was the only exercise I got in.

Today, I might walk to the post office and to run some errands at the armoury, depending on how I feel. That'll be a good 30 minutes of walking.

TGIF!

My cold is pretty much gone, so even though I didn't have time to do a proper workout, I managed to get in 3 sets of 10 squats plus 3 sets of calf raises.

I want to try to keep the mindset that a little is better than none. "I don't have time" is no excuse - there's always time, somewhere. This morning, I did those exercises while b/f was in the shower and I was cooking breakfast.

Didn't get anything in yesterday (Monday) because b/f was home sick. Only exercise was walking to the grocery store and lugging everything upstairs.

Today: LB
squats: 3 sets of 11-12
calf raises: 3 sets. 9, then 6, then 7
crunches: 3 sets of 10

Got a little overcarbed on beer last night. Noted slightly increased performance.

Today: in a hurry, so just pushups. 3 sets of 8 or 9.

Noticed my calves were sore from yesterday. Probably because I forgot to take glutamine. That stuff really works! I used to think I just wasn't working hard enough, but "no pain, no gain" isn't true. I'm only sore if I forget the glutamine. There's no *way* I work too hard.

Ack! You know I'm behind in my workouts when I'm on page two of the gym logs.

Actually, though, I just forgot to post. I did a lower body on Monday, skipped yesterday because b/f was home, and today, slept in so I only got a few crunches in. Gotta get my act back together.

Today - walked to the store, it was a beautiful day outside! Walked home with too many groceries; my forearms are sore now.

Another beautiful day outside. Walked to the park, sunned for a little bit, then walked to the store. Carried home a half-case of diet pepsi plus some groceries. So light cardio.

Yesterday (Monday) I missed working out - I totally forgot that I was supposed to be at work early, and remembered about ten minutes before I was supposed to be there.

Today: rushed for time, but I got in some lower body work while I made brekky.

squats: 3 sets of 10
butt blasters: 3 sets of 10

*edit:

later in the evening, I added 3 sets of sit-ups, 10 reps

I had to carry a case of beer on my back to the armoury. Yes, that's a workout! It was a good 10 minute walk! I was achin'!
