Sunday, May 1:<\/strong> May began well with an afternoon back, traps, lats, lower back, biceps, and forearms workout followed immediately without any rest whatsoever by three kilometres on my favourite treadmill:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Tuesday,\u00a0May 3:<\/strong> I took advantage of a slightly later start time (9:30 a.m.) by going to the gym bright and early for a legs, sides, and abs workout. I also threw in a couple of lower back extensions because the stiffness from Sunday’s workout had gone.<\/p>\n

Wednesday, May 4:<\/strong> A solid chest, shoulders, and triceps workout preceded by a steep 3.5 kilometers on my second favourite treadmill:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Thursday, May 5:<\/strong> Thirty-five minutes on a spin bike because all the treadmills were being used:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

Friday, May 6:<\/strong> Up bright and early for an intense 3o-minute legs, abs, and sides workout in my favourite gym. I expect to be very sore tomorrow and will be bitterly disappointed if I’m not.<\/p>\n

Monday, May 9:<\/strong> An early morning 4-kilometer treadmill session to make up for a rare exercise-less weekend:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

Thursday, May 12: <\/strong>Thirty minutes on a\u00a0spin bike followed by a back (upper and lower), traps, lats,\u00a0and biceps workout:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Friday, May 13: <\/strong>Up early for a short legs, abs, and sides workout.<\/p>\n

Saturday, May 14:<\/strong> At an hour and 15 minutes, today’s workout was the longest and hardest in a good long while. Today’s workout consisted of exercises for my chest, shoulders, triceps, and forearms (my triceps are particularly sore as I type this Sunday morning), followed by 4 steep kilometers on\u00a0my favourite\u00a0treadmill:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

Friday, May 20:<\/strong> Back exercising today after being sick since last Sunday. It’s been a while since I’ve gone so long without exercising and I really felt like I needed a workout. No cardio yet as I’m still not completely over this cruel cold, so it was a pure weights: back, biceps, traps, lats, thighs, hamstrings, calves, and lower back.<\/p>\n

Saturday, May 21:<\/strong> I continued dusting away the cobwebs caused by my recent cold with another weights session: chest, shoulders, triceps, forearms, sides, and abs.<\/p>\n

Tuesday, May 24:<\/strong> My first cardio session since recovering from last week’s serious cold was a frustrating one for two reasons: one, a phone call from a wrong number, and two, the sudden death of the first treadmill I used 16 minutes after I hopped on it:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Thursday, May 26:<\/strong> Up early (relatively) for a back, biceps, traps, lats, sides, and lower back workout followed by my 299th cardio workout since record taking began way back in the summer of 2009:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Friday, May 27:<\/strong> A short sharp chest, shoulders, triceps, and calves workout despite feeling pretty tired today after a late night playing cards at Sydney St.<\/p>\n

And that was it for the month. A late night Friday night after the Kemmys\u00a0kept\u00a0me exercising on Saturday,\u00a0a late\u00a0night following Seanan’s wedding kept me from exercising on Sunday, and a busy day Monday and a returning cold kept me from exercising Monday and\u00a0Tuesday. I did exercise on Wednesday though, but\u00a0the picture and its short description belong in next month’s\u00a0entry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
