My day began early releasing the hounds, drinking coffee, and having my new favorite breakfast of Cascadian Farms Organic Maple Brown Sugar Granola Cereal. I then roused Kim up and as she got ready for work I got in 30 minutes on the spin bike. After my ride I worked on some more book work and prepared to hit the gym.
I'm a day behind with my workouts due to the day I missed with the life insurance exam earlier in the week, so I was due to train arms instead of legs. I decided this would give me the opportunity to get in a good amount of time on the treadmill pre-workout since I didn't have to worry about my legs being weak afterward. I did a combo of intervals/jogging/walking for 60 minutes. I felt great afterward. Even with a good bit of walking/recovery after the intervals I still did 6+ miles in less than 60 minutes. The arm workout was kinda ho-hum. 3 sets of press downs, 3 sets of reverse grip press downs for triceps. Biceps consisted of 3 sets of heavy dumbbell curls, then 3 sets of cable curls with a straight bar.
I spent the rest of the day trying to run errands around town and get my meals in. While shopping I found lots of fish on sale which I snatched up. So Kim and I have a weekend of salmon, tuna, scallops, and shrimp to look forward to. Late in the evening after dinner, Kim the Pug and I walked about a mile and a half for my final exercise of the day. BodyBugg reports 4200+ calories burned and I took in less than 2200.
This weekend we should get in a couple of runs for Kim, a leg workout, and a lot of late night baseball (the Braves are in San Francisco so Saturday's game doesn't start until after 10PM). Have a good weekend everyone.
Random Picture of the day. My new neighbor has moved in across the street. I've ever so cleverly named him Mr. Hawk....
