Last two days
Thursday was incredibly hot. I was busy and did a little bit of walking; no exercise other than that though.
Today I did a workout at the gym and did some jogging.
Quick warm-up on the reclining bike.
Squats: 10kg dumbbells * 12, 10, 8
Walking lunges: 10kg dumbbells * six lengths of the gym (twelve paces long)
Didn't do any calf-raises, didn't see much point.
Overhead tricep extensions: 2kg * 12, 8, 8
Tricep backwards thing: 3kg * 12, 10, 8
Seated bicep curl/shoulder press: 4kg * 12, 10, 4. Seated shouder press with 4kg: 4.
Quicker still cool-down on the floating platform (really silly thing, sort of fun).
Walked: home to Fitzrovia (1 mile), Fitzrovia to Covent Garden/Holborn (1 mile), Covent Garden/Holborn to home. Jogged from Old Street to home via the canal, doing probably about 1/2 mile of walking.
Go me! It was good to get back to the gym, and good to get jogging again. I need to do more regular jogging as I've lost some of my confidence with it.
In aromatic news: I absolutely stink right now! It is a good post-exercise stink. I'll hit the shower after I hit 'post'.
