Ok, good cardio session yesterday. I ended up going last night instead of yesterday morning due to late night shenanigans on Monday.
Today I’m gonna be doing cardio at night again. Tomorrow is the first 3-set week on my weight workout.

Ok, here’s what’s up - had a slight derailment last week due to this: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/08/16/MN77199F58.DTL
So I was going to have to stay at a friend’s house in order to ensure that I could get to work, but the strike that may have started today isn’t happening after all, so my life can get back in gear.
This week I’m gonna go ahead and start the first 3-set week. Tonight I’m gonna be busy, but tomorrow morning I’m gonna hit the gym for cardio.
No measurements this week - not a huge deal. I’ll make sure to get them done next weekend. Diet’s been ok; bad of me, but I haven’t yet started measuring all my meals to make sure I’m on target, though I have been keeping an eye on my portion sizes, and I’ve been making sure to eat smaller meals more often throughout the day.
Tonight I have to do some laundry, and hit up the grocery store. It’s my goal this week to avoid going out at all.

Somehow, someway I screwed up and forgot to take my measurements on Sunday. Not a huge deal, but I can’t be forgetting that important part of my routine.
Tonight and tomorrow I’ll be hitting the gym for cardio.

Ok, had a good workout last night. Deadlifts are still my achilles heel.
Tonight was good, too. Felt great intensity on all my weights. We’ll see what the measurements say tomorrow.
Next week is the first 3 set week. I’m really enjoying these 3 days-a-week weight sessions. One-two-three and they’re done. I like that.

Had a great workout last night, but it cut into my cardio a little so I’m gonna have to remember to get to the gym a bit earlier next time.
Tonight is back night. I’m very glad it’s Friday.

WHEW. I’M PUMPED FULL OF ENERGY RIGHT NOW.
I had to change my plans a bit today; had to go to work early so I switched my cardio to night time instead of first thing in the morning. Just got back and am really full of energy. Unfortunately, I have to go to bed.
Tomorrow is the first night of the 2-set week. I’m looking forward to my workout tomorrow.

Ok, so measurements were about what I expected on Sunday. My weight is a bit distressing, though - this is the heaviest I’ve been since I started tracking my weight on BodySpace. Let’s change that.
I didn’t hit the gym on Sunday or Monday to give myself 2 solid days of rest, but I did go this morning for cardio. This session was real tough at first, but once I got my heart rate up it was better. I got to bed a bit late last night, so I’m gonna be diligent about getting to bed on time tonight.
Tomorrow morning is another cardio session, then Thursday night I start up weights for the 2-set week.

Last night’s workout was good, and it was actually quite brisk, which was really nice. I forgot that these 3-days-a-week plans have a shorter night on back night. Deadlifts weren’t all that bad, but they still kick my butt.
Today I went first thing in the morning for my last weight workout of the week. Gym was packed but most of the people there were doing the spinning class or the aerobics class. I actually had finished my workout and was on my way home when I got pulled over for running a yellow/red light. The officer asks me for my DL, but MY WALLET WAS GONE. I got off with a warning and high-tailed it back to the gym where my wallet was lodged in the seat area of the leg press…. WHEW. It was kind of a blessing that I got pulled over because if I hadn’t, I’d have made it all the way home before I noticed my wallet missing.
Interesting morning, to say the least. But anyway - I’m gonna enjoy the rest of the day, and am probably not going to do anything tomorrow. M - W I’ll probably do my morning cardio dealie.
Oh yeah, and measurements tomorrow.
