Back and Tricep workout | Apple Crumbles

A Hump Day Workout

Wednesday's work out was back and triceps. Getting up wasn't a chore since I was able to relax earlier than usual last night. I hit the massage chair at 7:45 pm and that really eliminated a lot of tension. I went for a walk with Ted and Shane at 9pm. By 9:20pm, I was already under the covers. Zzzzzz. Back to today's exercise: 4 sets of each exercise. I'll refer to each "set" as the back exercise immediately followed by the tricep exercise. The first "set" was done for 20 reps. The second "set", 18 reps. Third "set", 15 reps. and finally, [...]

Back to normal

Shane is back to normal. I was almost thinking that he was quieter the last week because he had matured somewhat. WRONG!

It was a workout of back and triceps. 4 x 10 - 15 reps. of each exercise. The exercises today were bent over rows (I don't like doing these), one hand overhead tri extensions. Mid pulley rows, two hand o/h tri extensions. Lat [...]

As the wind blows

There was a lot of noise when I woke up this morning. Since high winds were predicted, I thought thats what it was. So I went downstairs for my work out thinking my walk with Shane would be a short one. I was so surprised to see the temperature at 44 F. That was good. But still...high winds? I don't like wind and didn't plan on being outside in it for very long. I ran for 44 minutes, doing 5 miles. Weights this morning were dedicated to back and triceps for 40 minutes. 4 x 12 to 15 mid pulley [...]

Blown Away

Disappointment last night, no football. Should've known since Sun. was the last of regular season. So I went to bed REAL early. But was able to meet Mr. Sandman almost immediately. There is a lullaby about Mr. Sandman my dad used to sing to me when going to sleep: "Come little Jody, run up the stairs, put on your nighty, say your prayers. Ride with Mr. Sandman, til daylight comes again. See all the wonders of Wonderland, in Dream Mans dreams." Think I got it right. It was windy, windy, windy this morning. Wasn't looking forward to going out for [...]
