so, i got to the gym for what i thought was my last personal training session... as it turns out, i have one left (so i'm doing that one on friday)
i haven't been to the gym since saturday... when i did 20 minutes on the elliptical.
so, i set a goal for myself to just do 16 minutes on it before moving on to the treadmill and then the PT session.
anyway, i wound up staying on the elliptical for 30 MINUTES (that's 30:00)
i didn't do the treadmill --- and the elliptical has those handlebars that you work the upper body with for a "total body workout"
i did 3756 strides (2.25 miles) on the elliptical in that time. (burned 239 calories)
then i did an hour of weight training and ab work... killer.
free motion squat row | 20lbs | 3 sets | 12 reps
side raise cable & front raise dumbbell | 10lb cable/5lb dumbbell | 3 sets | 12/12//10 reps each side
side squats with rubber band around ankles | 3 sets | 12 reps
biaxial chest press | 30 lbs | 3 sets | 12 reps
outside ankle med. ball abs | 4lbs | 3 sets | 10 reps each side
oblique leg pull-in abs | 3 sets | 12 reps each side
skull crushers (chest flyes/tricep ext. | 5 lbs | 3 sets | 12 reps
step punch / 12" platform | 2.5lbs | 3 sets | 12 reps each leg
bosu ab crunch | 2 sets | 12 reps
superman/limb lift | 2 sets | 12 reps & 30 second hold
that's what i did.
just ate a banana... not really hungry (at the moment, i don't think that i could lift up a fork.)

I don't like the sound of skull crushers... it sounds too crushy especially in the skull area
