Tuesday's workout!

I hit the gym nice and early today. I did a quick 4 miles on the TM after a 15 minute stretching routine. After the running was my pull day (muscle groups that involve pulling Biceps and Back). I did about 4 sets for each group and called it a day.

When I was there a guy asked what to do about some pain behind his knee. I told him it sounded like IT Band stuff and gave him a few stretches. About ten minutes later a gal came to me on the TM and asked if I could show her some stretches for the low back. She was astounded that I was doing 25 more minutes. Glad she missed the days I was on there for 3 hours. She might have fainted. Anyway, it seems like I am the new personal trainer for the gym.

The first time you do something - It's going to be a personal record!

Well, today I am still sick but had enough energy to get to the gym. My lungs were on fire swimming (Upper resp infection does'nt like regimented breathing). I got in a 1200M swim, then did a brief 20 minute spin to losen my legs, then ran 3.1 on dreadmill in 30:00 did abs and sat in sauna for 20 mins. I am hoping to be 100% healthy by the end of the week. I hope everyone else is well....

I get a lot of people asking me questions as well at my gym. I have to be careful though since I work there and am not a personal trainer. I could get in trouble. All I can say is what I do or would do.

Anyway, Tuesday is spin day! Had a great class, but noticed my legs are a little sore today. Oh well, that'll teach me to take a whole week off!

Got in another 2 3/4 mile walk. Did order a new Felt B12 bike with some nice HED race wheels -- I'll be getting in probably 2-4 weeks which is perfect timing for me to heal and maybe get my old bike up on my trainer so I don't embarrass myself at the bike fitting. Healing is coming along nicely!
