May 29 - Personal Training Day 29 + 2 miles

Full from two slices of Mellow Mushroom pizza with marinara before my workout, I ran a mile with Kelly to warm up then met a new workout in which we'd do 8 exercises with cardio in between sets — but four sets total — the first set 10 reps of everything, second set 15 reps, third 20 and fourth...25!

1. Squat to row - 20 lbs each arm
2. Deadlift to upright row - 30 lb barbell
3. Lat pulldown - 60 lbs
4. Db chest press w/ 17.5 lb weighs
5. Db thruster with 12-lb. weights
6. Yellow band alt. side lunge to reach
7. Chop jump squat w/ 14-lb. ball
8. Decline sit-up to press w/ 8-lb. weights

After set 1, jump rope 300 times. This proved to be very difficult as pizza was sloshing around in my stomach. I'd get to 30, then stop, then 50, then stop, then 100, and stop, 150...300, finally. After set 2, stairmaster w/ 6-lb. medicine ball overhead for 4 minutes on level 6. This was also difficult. Third set was elliptical at level 10 for 4 minutes. After the fourth and final set of 25 (so hard!) of everything we ran another mile, which felt surprisingly good. I got home and felt like I had the flu — so achy! I showered and then went out for thai, and felt suprisingly better after.
