October 2020 Fitness Diary!

Friday, October 2: My gym is closed today, but I found one not too far away that was open. The result was a 50-minute workout: back, lats, biceps, forearms, hamstrings, and 230 crunches.

Saturday, October 3: Back to yesterday’s gym, which I really like, for 65 minutes of weights: chest, shoulders, triceps, calf raises and seated raises – I wish my gym had one of those, weighless squats, and leg extensions.

Sunday, October 4: An evening home workout for my core: crunches (more than 260), side raises, and lower back extensions. And I’m really quite sore from yesterday’s workout. Well, that’s the end of this year’s Chuseok break. My gym reopens tomorrow, amd the last couple of gym sessions have reinvigorated me.

Monday, October 5: Back in my local and favorite gym for a 45-minute evening weights session: traps, lats, back, biceps, forearms, one set of leg raises, calf rasies, and for the first time: reverse calf raises. I then walked for 90 minutes My daily total was 8.8 km/11,250 steps. Just before bed, I did more calf raises and reverse calf raises. I wish I had started doing those years ago. Love the burn!

Tuesday, October 6: No gym but instead I did some late night core and calf work – both sides again.

Wednesday, October 7: Another evening gym session. Tonight’s workout was 50 minutes long: traps, chest, shoulders, weightless squats, leg presses, triceps, and hamstring curls. Later at home, I did a set of 40 push-ups. Amd just before bed, I did some reverse calf raises and some trap work.

Friday, October 9: Forty-minute workout: traps, lats, back, biceps, forearms, sides, and lowerback. Then later before bed, I did multiple sets of calf raises and reverse calf raises.

Sunday, October 11: A home workout today: sets of push ups and shoulder raises spread out over the day, and then in the evening: triceps, about 280 crunches, calf raises, reverse calf raises, and grip squeezes. A couple of sets of lower back extensions a little later ended the day as far as exercise is concerned.

Monday, October 12: Another night workout: traps, lats, back, biceps, forearms, weightless squats, leg extensions, and hamsting curls.

Tuesday, October 13: An impromptu gym session: chest, shoulders, and traps.

Wednesday, October 14: A home workout at night: calf raises, reverse calf raises, about 260 crunches, sides, and lower back.

Wednesday, October 21:  An unintended week off due to a birthday weekend and being both busy and lazy. The result was an overdue and much-needed 47-minute workout: traps, lats, back, biceps, and forearms.

Friday, October 23: Back in the gym for an intense 30-minute workout: chest, shoulders, triceps, and lower back.

Monday, October 26: An hour of weights left me feeling pretty exhausted: traps, lats, back, biceps, forearms, leg extensions, weightless squats, leg extensions for the first time in a long time, hamstring curls, and lower back extensions.

Wednesday, October 28: Just before bed some crunches, side extensions, calf raises and reverse calf raises.
