Stats and Stuff

I haven't been in the gym since last Wednesday. (Today is Tuesday!) But, that doesn't mean I haven't been active... on the contrary!

Thursday was my "off" day.

Friday, I had good intentions to make it to the gym, but I sat in traffic most of the morning instead! Oh, the joys of having to travel via an interstate highway! (You can read about it here!) By the time I got home, I was too exhausted to even think about working out.

Saturday morning, I worked out at home. I had to crank out Stage 1 Wkout A of the "New Rules of Lifting" before the end of the week. Randy and I bought a used weight bench and weights a week ago, so I was able to do the workout. After that, I mowed the grass. My HRM reported I burned about 500 calories doing those two things.

Sunday, we took the girls for a nature hike. They only lasted about one hour, but in their defense, it was high noon with little to no shade.

Monday, I took the day off and didn't do anything remotely related to cardio work or weight lifting, unless you count bringing the laundry down (and back up) the stairs!

Today, I hit the gym again for Stage 1 Wkout B (week 2). That is, after I drop the girls off at school for their first day back. I hope I'm not a complete blubbering mess when I leave the school.

Later!
