Exercise bike
I almost completed the hour on the exercise bike with my little routing but just couldn’t keep it up at the end. Level 6 is going down next time.

After Sunday I’m not goign to have ny refined sugar until my birthday. And then not until May 19th (Star Wars) and then not until bbq (May 21st) and then not until the 4th of July. I don’t know when after that, but that’s pretty good.
Today was my first workout with both the slow reps and using the 60% of max weights. I can feel it in all my muscles now which is good. I haven’t had that all over tired from working out feeling in a long time. I also learned that using slow reps (4 counts up, 4 […]

I suppose I should state my goals up front here. Get more fit See if I’m the kind of person who can get 6-pack abs Start working towards another triathlon
I started out with 10 minutes on the exercise bike for a warm-up. I tried to keep the RPM between 90-95. Abs: Ab bench with feet raised – 2 sets of 10 (hard to do slow) Back raises – 1 set of 15, 1 set of 7 Rotary torso – 2 sets each side at […]
So today was my first day exercising in a little over 1.5 years. There were a few days with ice skating involved in them but aside from that I haven’t done any real exercise since my last sprint triathlon in July 2003. My goal today was to find my levels where I should be starting […]
