Good morning everyone,
After the throbbing headache subsided yesterday I still had a dull headache for all of yesterday so I did not get around to doing Muscle Endurance in the afternoon. When I got home from work a feel asleep for a couple of hours, after which I felt better. Had a light dinner(had little appetite to speak of) watched a little TV and turned in pretty early. Got in a good 8+ hours of sleep and today I feel great.
Did Muscle Endurance this morning and upped my barbell weight for squats by 5 pounds. It's amazing how even a small increase like that and your body feels it. It did feel good so I plan to continue to increase the time or sets that I'm doing this heavier weight until I can do everything with this weight. I'm also proud of myself for the work I did in the triceps segment. For some reason my triceps seem to fry early in this workout and I have to lower weight for the overhead tricep presses to 8#. Today I could do the whole last segment with the 10# and felt I could have done more. Woo Hoo!
Lots of stuff to do around the house and I'm trying to finish my Christmas shopping this weekend. Hope everyone is having a great weekend.
Take care,

Take care,
There must be something like 15-20 intervals in the cardio portion. Granted, some of them are only 30-40 seconds long, but this was one tough workout. I don't have either of the Imaxes yet so I imagine this is good training to get prepared for them. Needless to say, I was drenched by the end of the workout and my face is probably just now returning to normal coloring after being really flushed at times.
