Winter and sore shoulders SUCK(!) my left toe

Tu.  No morning workout.  Evening workout:  circuit at Tabor, 60 minutes.  I did lots of extra cardio to keep warm...the hall was so flippin' icy cold.

I've been pretty slack for a few days.  My right shoulder is still giving me some grief.  The rains have discouraged me from doing anything outdoors.  :(

Energy! Lots of it!!

Tu.  Morning workout, 30:03.  Tai Chi warmups, 2-minute cardio.  "Tone up with free weights" workout, 3 sets @ 30 seconds each:  1)  fit ball chest presses, 2) fit ball bent-over rows, 3) barbell cleans, 4) barbell push presses, 5) dumbbell front swings, and 6) weighted Russian twists on the fit ball.

Despite the rain....

Tu.  Shockingly cold and wet this morning.  Great timing to test my Under Armour...pass.  I stayed pretty warm and comfortable...as long as I was running.  Walking...well, I did feel a bit chilly.  Five-minute walk, 20-minute run, 10-minute walk=35 minutes.

Evening workout:  Tabor circuit, 60 minutes.

Workout

Rain, rain, rain

Intended to do a stimulating workout on my MTB this morning, but low and behold rain falleth over the entire area. So, not to be deterred, I jumped in the car and headed to the fitness center for an alternative workout. There, I pushed myself to exhaustion with a strenuous circuit training session to make up for missing out on a stimulating ride.

Workout

french: the language of...circuit training

I'm a big fan of podcasts these days.  I've just started up again with the French Podclass.  I usually listen to each class about 5 times before I move on to the next episode, and figure it can't hurt my memory skills just to listen even if it doesn't get my undivided attention.&nbs
