Yesterday night, Kirsten and I went to the gym and did an hour's worth of weights. We were supposed to go that morning, but with the trime change and general tiredness, I managed to sleep through the workout window. At the gym we did shoulders and chest - generally split between machine and free weights. I was doing not too bad (though light), except for two exercises, both for shoulders. The first was seated, pulling the weights straight up. The second was a pull-down with a straight arm, which kept turning into a tricep exercise for me somehow. All in all though, the trip to the gym wasn't that bad. We'll see if I feel the same way at 6 in the morning.

I weighed myself last night too - 187 lbs. I figured I was somewhere around there, but didn't realize it was that close to 190.

This morning was running day. I was okay but tired until about 2/3 of the way through, when I started getting this weird, bad cramp in my right shin and knee. I'm not entirely sure what it is - Kirsten figures it's my body rebelling from the exercise, but it's pretty isolated to that spot. I managed to keep running a little bit after the cramp started, but had to stop and rest/stretch a few times along the way.

For all other inquiries, see previous entry.

Update: It looks like I'm not the only one hitting the gym. Choire Sicha has started to fight the flab too.
