Thursday, July 07, 2005

I am not going to be doing any cardio at the gym so long as I am waitressing. My knee is swollen and sore from the activities involved with serving. I don't want to push it, so I'll just consider waitressing my cardio. Because it is.

Weighed myself today. 151 lbs, this means I have lost about 5 pounds. Probably water weight from not being able to eat very much because of my shifts at work.

Back
Seated rows (cable): 3 x 10/10/8 @ 70/70/80 lbs
Lat pull downs: 3 x 10 @ 70 lbs
High rows (cable): 3 x 10 @ 60 lbs

Legs... this was the first time I've attempted these in a while since I last re-injured my knee. My goal is to held build up the muscles surrounding my knee in hopes of some pain relief. I am going to use light weights to do this.

Leg press (lever): 3 x 12 @ 90 lbs
Lunges: 3 x 10/leg @ 20 lbs
Deadlifts: 3 x 10 @ 20 lbs
Squats: 3 x 10 @ 20 lbs
Leg extensions: 3 x 10 @ 15 lbs

ABS
Hanging knee raises: 4 x 15
V-tucks: 3 x 15
Leg lifts off decline: 3 x 10
Weighted crunches in roman chair: 3 x 10 @ 50 lbs
Weighted crunches on ball: 9?? these hurt my lower back too much

Cardio: waitressing tonight for 3-4 hours.

Tuesday, July 05, 2005

Hmm, I'm lacking with the fitness blog.

Uhmm.. this is stolen from Gill's blog. We worked out together.

"-"sketchy bench press"-3x12@ 30lbs
-"hugging the tree press" 3x12@ 20lbs
-ab crunches
-bicycles
-pushups on the ball ? heh heh"

My knee is very irriated and sore from all of this waitressing that I've been doing. I count serving as cardio, it's really an overall workout. All I do is hustle around and haul heavy objects.

I haven't been working out again because of my knee. I re-injured it last Thursday (June 2nd), and it is only now beginning to feel better again.

Last night:
Swam 200m, back crawl and just random swimming
Treaded water for 5 minutes
45 minute core strength class in the pool

My knee didn't hurt at all in the pool so maybe swimming is an option I should be considering. The core strength class was different. I would say it was a low to moderate intensity work out. I spent most of my time wrestling noodles. I'd go to it again though.
